      - motivation: formal academia teaches too many snippets and facts rather than actual metacognition
        
        problems
        
        not a field large enough to be assessed on
        
        comparative assessment reducing the incentive to discover more about metacognition
        
        teaching people how to apply metacognition is either hypocritical or ineffective
        
        "logic and rationale" never changes; the scientific method is something that never changes; perhaps certain statistical tools do, but the general idea of epistemology has never changed over the past few centuries
    - - flipped classroom
        
        motivation: to encourage incentive for students to participate more in learning
        
        advantages
        
        increase student participation
        
        economies of scale
        
        may be more productive since materials are curated beforehand
        
        criticism
        
        digital divide for lower socio-economic background students
        
        usually rely on video, which is still the same thing as a lecture, anyway
        
        some students struggle to develop self-responsibility to ensure they complete the assigned learning tasks
        
        increased preparation time for teachers
        
        unfamiliar and new method
        
        students are given materials to complete self-study, or conduct self-research with a library (usually the internet)
  - - - economics of scale
      - benefits earned from the commodification of education
      - nash equilibria that isn't pareto-optimal
      - the non-viability of other methods to a large population
    - - it's not great, but it's the least worst kind of education system
      - teaching itself hasn't really changed either; still a teacher at the front with a white/blackboard and speaking to students
