If I memorize enough stuff, I can get a good grade.
The answer to most questions can be given in one or two words, and no one will challenge you to go deeper.
If we ask enough questions about a difficult assignment, we can get the teacher to make it easier and less demanding.
The teacher "teaches" and the students "sit and listen" or learn passively.
"Thinking" is not something we talk about.
The teacher is the only one worth listening to.
If we wait long enough, a teacher will answer her own question, so we won't have to do much work.
Books and teachers are always "right", and we learn only from them, not from any other resource in the room, such as our friends.
There is one "right answer" to any question, and it is in the book to be read.
Most tasks and tests will demand recall of isolated pieces of information, and I will not have to show how concepts and ideas are related or how facts illustrate underlying principles.
