Suppose the educational system is drastically altered to reflect the structure of society and what we now understand about how people learn. How will what universities teach be different?
What You (Really) Need to Know By LAWRENCE H. SUMMERS Published: January 20, 2012
more about how to process and use
information, less about imparting
more collaboration and more evaluation on the ability to work
with others
new technologies allowing constant
revision of materials
active & dynamic learning
breed cosmopolitanism
much more emphasis on the analysis of data

LO 15. Define a robust statistic (e.g. median, IQR) as a statistic that is not heavily affected by skewness and extreme outliers, and determine when such statistics are more appropriate measures of center and spread compared to other similar statistics.

Common misconception: Collecting a large sample reduces skewness.
Correction: Large samples, as long as they are collected randomly, will resemble their parent populations.
True or False: You are going to collect income data from a right-skewed distribution of incomes of politicians. If you take a large enough sample from that distribution, the sample mean and the sample median will always have the same value.

faculty: spend less time on basic
questions + more time on higher-level
activities and discussions
students: help each other fill in
knowledge gaps + defend their solutions to
challenging real-world problems
organization: structured videos, readings, activities,
and discussions enable students to focus more quality time on learning
feedback: consistent feedback during every class meeting and can
more readily adapt to achieve success
shift: students come to class
having done the reading, ready to work and become
responsible for their own learning
reallocate: spend class time actively and collaboratively solving problems
and practicing discipline-specific
skills
collaborate: working in teams
enables students to hear alternative viewpoints and
bring their talents to the discussion
