“I like a teacher who gives you something to take home to think about besides homework.” (Lily Tomlin as "Edith Ann)
“The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” (William Arthur Ward)
College is a place where a professor’s lecture notes go straight to the students’ lecture notes; without passing through the brains of either. (Mark Twain)

Curiosity comes first.
The word that a 4 - year old uses at most : “WHY?”
Focus on specific areas : - If you can't become the greatest in all fields; which requires millions, just become the best in specific fields. (to have an identity )
Coordinators instead of teachers : Main goal should be to channel the students the areas where they are most productive and creative, no mean to teach them.
Short Lessons : Please keep the lectures short, this generation is not supposed listen you for 50 minutes. ( Yunus Soylet; President of Istanbul University)
Better use of technology : Online learning or video lectures has many advantages over classroom learning.
Under right conditions, adults are better learns compared to children. (University of Haifa)
Classes should not be primarily about information, more important is motivation and determination. (UC, La Jolla )

One reason that Becker’s hypothesis has displaced Leibenstein’s might be because Leibenstein presents the “principle of diminishing marginal external consumption effect” via a meticulous discussion (190-196) that guides the reader step-by-step through a “conceptual experiment” and a “diagrammatical method” rather than via concise mathematical symbols. Whatever the reasons, the consequences of ignoring Leibenstein’s hypothesis are unfortunate. Our exploration of the analytics of Becker’s model shows that nonsensical implications attend the upward sloping segment of the demand he hypothesizes—negative quantities demanded—as well as anomalous comparative static results. We write the market demand functions as: i Q p F Q p q Q = =Σ= where qi(p, QE) denotes the demand of the ith consumer; Q denotes quantity demanded in the market; p denotes the relative price of the commodity; and QE denotes the market demand quantity expected by each consumer.12 Consistent with the presence of a bandwagon effect, assume that Q and QE are positively related (that is, ∂F/∂QE > 0). In addition, assume that the direct effect of a change in price on quantity demanded is negative (that is, Fp < 0).13 At this level, the model does
The equilibrating condition is that:
Q = QE .14
Substituting equation (2) into (1), the equation for market demand is:
Q = F(p,Q).
the bandwagon effect be sufficiently large; specifically, upward sloping demand is
implied only when FQ > 1.16 To show this, take the total derivative of equation (3):
dQ = Fp dp + FQ dQ.
Upon rearranging terms, it follows that
Bandwagon effect describes interactions of demand and preference. The bandwagon effect arises when people's preference for a commodity increases as the number of people buying it increases. This interaction potentially disturbs the normal results of the theory of supply and demand, personal preference. which assumes that consumers make buying decisions solely based on price and their own
