"The concept of group solidarity is much stranger in Western cultures than it is elsewhere, and I imagine that our unfamiliarity with it--our cultural reverence is for the individual--accounts for how difficult is out relationship to collaboration" & "We assign collaboration: we assess individuation" (95, 110)

If learning is collaboration, than isn't this hyperbolic sense of the individual a learning disability? Can technology change the way we grade so that we can assess and reward based on collaboration?

"Resistance to collaboration seems linked to invention." (97)

HUH?
