Teaching in 20 First Century Schools - Knowledge Versus Understanding

Yel: Why is it that some people find it more helpful to use the knowledge versus understanding comparison, and others prefer the shallow versus deep knowledge kind of comparison? Yel: For me, i think there's a lot of talk at the moment, often knowledge is condemned and compared to 20 first century schools. And i really worry that when we play off knowledge in 20 first Century schools, for example, or knowledge and understanding knowledge, ends up kind of getting a bad rap and getting left behind. Yel: Sometimes education has fixated only on covering facts and skills, eily thinking that that's all that's needed. But i would argue they also Ceptual understandings are important
