  6. 8 Shifts of Interactive Learning • From linear to hypermedia learning • From instruction to construction and discovery • From teacher-centered to learner centered education • From absorbing material to learning how to navigate and how to learn • From school to life-long learning • From one-size-fits-all to customized learning • From learning as a torture to learning as fun • From the teacher as transmitter to the teacher as facilitator and coach Tapscott, Don.

  42. A Connection…. Push me! See how far I go! Work me till I drop. Then pick me up. Open a door and make me run to it before it closes.
