"The attempt to draw parallels between today's technology and the artifacts of
schools provides a safe haven for those educators who are more likely to adopt
technology if it doesn't change their underlying models of how the world works. There is no paradigm shift implied by the move from classroom lectures to the delivery of content through video. Such a transition only preserves the model of
teaching as telling. "
