+ * List of misconceptions about learning: "empty vessel", "bitter pill to sugarcoat", "innate intelligence", "cohesive self", not understanding how the more mental models you have, the easier it is to assimilate new models, not understanding "the medium is the message", the belif that "some skills are more fundamental to others", the belief in a "minimum set of knowledge that make up a discipline", the belief in "being behind or ahead or on track", the goal of "getting into college / getting a job", "pre-loaded learning vs just-in-time learning", "learning as resume building instead of for instrinsic learning", not recognizing the "importance of context (and emotions) in learning", "some people are 'math people' and some are 'arts people'"... TODO write more about this
