Given the excerpt you quoted uses the word "want" I think you mean you don't want to learn in a broadcast way. That's fine, but that's not a sufficient rebuttal to the point you were replying to that "The learning process will be similar to 20, 200 or 2000 years ago as the brain does not change that quickly." I'm not sure I entirely agree with that[1], but saying you want to learn in a different way is not evidence that "people learn in totally different ways."
On one hand I feel students preferring more interaction / less broadcast is nothing new, but on the other hand the popularity of Coursera, MIT OpenCourseWare, Udacity, Khan Academy, and countless other very "broadcasty" education sites/resources would seem to indicate many are quite satisfied with little or no interaction.
