Knowledge, Learning, Community

It's easy to sometimes forget that there is a person behind the text I'm reading on education and technology. But so much of what we do is just our day-to-day efforts trying to have a life and a career. What I really value about this article (18 page PDF) is that it takes the time and care to present Rose Luckin as a whole person. In this interview I like how detailed she is, I like how open she is, I like how thoughtful she is. Her approach is more institutional than my own, I think (perhaps reflecting a background in banking and computer science) and these days probably more policy-oriented. No matter. The interview as a whole was a pleasure to read, and I wish we had more like this about the very interesting personalities in our field.
