Gatekeeper teachers can easily conjure up arguments to maintain the status quo to resist disruptive technologies.

5 levels 4, 21c teacher: global, school-organization systems, students, learning teams, open resource & intellectual asset development.

MOOCs mass production for mass consumption. It is an industrial Fordist 20C model. No wonder dropout rates are in mass percentages.
