We Have to Stop Pretending - My 5 Things

Thanks @mcleod for the motivation this morning.  Great idea.  I hope all pick up on this.

When it comes to education, we have to stop pretending…

1. Covering content is the same as creating content.
2. Talking about critical thinking instead of doing critical thinking.
3. Sitting in rows, having students grouped by age is the best way to learn.
4. Learning is best done when broken up into subjects and units.
5. Textbooks are the best material to drive our lessons.

What are yours?
