In ages past, information distribution was a problem with few solutions. True, a printing press could be gleaned by a man of means and esteem, but with literacy scant, and paper steep, the dispersal potential, while intensified, remained circumscribed… and not cheap.
Which is why the best shot for knowledge dropped by a founding father, or a scholar, to spread a lot farther was to assemble a conclave. Rooms were not prerequisite for compromise and understandings to happen, but they happened with greater haste when meetings took place, so the place to be was in the room.
But now we're living in the Information Age and a physical room is just one of many options. You’ll find millions of minds at work in virtual classrooms, and some in inspiration from Kieran (and Lin-Manuel Miranda) for taking a mix-tape approach to course design.
