==============================================================
Finally, a general question: Are there any specific perscriptions
for educational practice based on PCT? I read the section in
Gary's _Without Miracles_, as well as the articles in _Educational
Researcher_, but has any PCT-er written something that 1) uses
PCT crucially (PC learning theory is _required_ for a given
way of designing curricula), and 2) gives details on how to design curricula
which would improve our ability to get students to be as skillful
as possible as quickly as possible (some proposals, like Papert's
would seem to require somebody spent about 30 years of "discovering"
before they get through high school).
Based on my interest in adult education and experience in post-secondary
institutes, I would say the first step would be to try and and make the
"What of Learning" explicit - something which I have seldom ever seen.
