Bluebooks Be Gone!


"A Different School of Thought." This is the phrase, or themeline, or one of them anyway, of Kaplan University. I hesitate to send you to their online site, because it is so far away in quality from the fantastic commercial they are running on television.

Asking apt questions about education -- all of which start with "Who said education ..." the commercial's principal stars are old time school desks, empty, stacked cheek to jowl in empty rooms, closing doorways. They are in paths along mountainsides, lining up on the roads.

The point is obvious, and they make it well. The internet has changed the world in so many ways. Digital natives and digital immigrants alike can learn what they want, any time, any where!
