George Landow & Mary Hopper, Passages from Personal Interview, March 2, 1992

Passage 1
Hopper: You use a collaborative approach in which students build Context32. How different do you think the future of these kinds of systems in education will be, if you have professionals develop this for students, rather than having the students develop it themselves?
 
Landow: That depends upon what you want. If you want to convey information, that is essentially conceived of and perceived as, "Known by big people," then you have professionals do it. In contrast, if you wish to have students learn both the information and the philosophical goals, then you have the students do it. It's a very large difference.
