Disruptive Technologies to Fix Education and Scale Solutions

Just kidding. 

For Aidan Feldman's Learning Technologies course at New York University's ITP program, I asked the students:

- Describe a time you learned something new.

From there we look at ways to build technologies that reflect how we learn best—via learning projects and helping each other.
