John Seely Brown on Web 2.0 and Education

There is a nice article on the CNET web site that quotes John Seely Brown on how Web 2.0 technologies can impact education. The quote I liked the best:

Rather than treat pedagogy as the transfer of knowledge from teachers who are experts to students who are receptacles, educators should consider more hands-on and informal types of learning. These methods are closer to an apprenticeship, a farther-reaching, more multilayered approach than traditional formal education, he said.
