I agree, that was a good post. I particularly liked point #9: What are the implicit lessons of the new approach?
A thought that occurred to me is educators should be asking is the Web/Education 2.0 experience really just an optimization of the former experience, along Koestler's "pink plane", or is it a "blue plane" (transformational) experience?

I am referring to a metaphor Arthur Koestler used in his book "The Act of Creation".
