If we don’t take tech and iterate, all we're doing is taking bad education & making it faster & more efficient. @jcasap @GoogleEdu #SWSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

Failing in classroom isn't the same as failing as an entrepreneur. It provides a safe environment to practice- but not comparable. #SXSWedu

Tension between the classical and the practical in #highered goes back to the 1800s says @jselingo. What's old is new again. #SXSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

Do you have to start a company to be an entrepreneur? Action bias- the personal risk can't be felt until you do it. #SXSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

To become an entrepreneur, you have to do. Education can provide a framework but not "teach" entre. #SXSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

Propaganda vs reality- traditional narratives revisited. #SXSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

Think that 4yr/ground is the only quality education? You're excluding millions. #stopdisruption #SXSWedu

[Lacey McCann @LaceyDMcCann]

OnlineEd provides access & opportunity. Inspiring faculty exist online & in the classroom. Can't we just get along? #stopdisruption #SXSWedu

[Becky Karsh @beckykarsh]

I know this isn't a panel about students, but shouldn't we at least MENTION the students? #stopdisruption #sxswedu2015

No more gatekeepers- straight to public funding. Sound advice in and out of education. #SXSWedu

Post-recession low income communities 5xask for classroom essentials rather than enrichment. @CharlesBest #sxswedu
