“We don’t come smart out of the box.” ― James Paul Gee, The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning #GBL

“Formal schooling tends to demand that humans use their memories the way computers do, rather than the way humans do. This, too, can make people seem stupid.” ― James Paul Gee, The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning #GBL

“human intelligence and creativity, today more than ever, are tied to connecting—synchronizing—people, tools, texts, digital and social media, virtual spaces, and real spaces in the right ways, .., but also better people in a better world.” ― James Paul Gee #GBL

“people like stories because they are good, not because they are true.” ― James Paul Gee, The Anti-Education Era: Creating Smarter Students through Digital Learning #GBL

“Our world is now so complex, our technology and science so powerful, and our problems so global and interconnected that we have come to the limits of individual human intelligence and individual expertise.” ― James Paul Gee #GBL
