I enjoyed this essay and he makes some good points. There is this feeling though so much isn't said about context and results. The audience seems to be college students. I have been an avid learner since I left high school but my college experience was more understanding closed systems of teacher/professor goals and requirements (3.8 computer science graduate). I really didn't learn anything except to be exposed to ideas. The real learning always starts after school. What I find is we as human beings are incredible learning machines and learn efficiently already. What the OP seems to really be saying is a watered down approach to making another person happy with what they think you need to learn. AKA, express results within that system. Goals, curiosity and discovery are tools to learning.
