What does a great education look like?   Is it something attainable, with
depth and scope?   Is it an unending cycle of empowerment and
self-discovery?

What are examples of educational concepts carried out to great success?

What are good things for learning alone; and what are good things to learn
socially?

What are ways for a community of hundreds to learn together over the course
of a generation?
What are good things for learning this way?  What are good bodies of
knowledge to create this way?

Some have suggested that [books] can be a boon to learning, that children
and apprentices learn better with them, even when they are working with a
teacher or master.   Others say the same about [dynabooks] and [the
information superhighway].
What are canonical illustrations or studies of the effects of these
(tools|environments)?
What are their advantages and disadvantages?
How fundamental are each to different stages of learning?
