So the easy criticism to level, which I will go ahead and air so someone can refute it, is that gearing info toward someone who can't handle long amounts of text or needs a snappy visual and an "easy takeaway" automatically makes the content less focused and knowledge-heavy than a different approach. As in, we let kids learn on iPads now because they can't learn any other way = TED talks. Am I way off base? Still never seen one so I'm still just asking. I'll watch one sometime this week and check my hypothesis.
