I hope I teach in a classroom again soon. If I am lecturing, then instead of telling everyone to please turn their bloody electronic devices off, I will ask them all to close their eyes and leave them closed. I wonder what would happen. How much more I might have learned from some lectures if I had kept my eyes closed, taken no notes, simply listened. . . though perhaps not advisable during art history slide shows!
