Nick Donofrio

As a speaker, I thought that Mr. D'Onofrio was as good as I've seen - he was dynamic, entertaining and made perfect sense. I especially identified with the concept of education resulting in "T-shaped" people as opposed to the "I-shaped" people who have been the norm for so long. After working for so many years with Engineers, I can absolutely see that we tend to know a whole lot about very little. In our 21st century world, we need to know a lot about some things, but at least a little bit about a whole lot of things! What I took from the lecture was that we need to change that focus - I just would have liked to hear some suggestions on how that can be accomplished, especially with the constraints of time, space and budget that teachers are faced with!
