"In the “traditional paradigm” known as the “standard
model” by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and
Development (OECD), memorizing of facts by repetition and
regurgitation of sentences read in a textbook was a priority.
Contents were learned by memory, which was understood as
an act of storage that exclusively relied on repetition. This
approach was based on a passive model of learning where the
teacher was the only source of information, the supreme
referent. Neither the autonomy of the pupils nor their diverse
natures were considered. Consequently, many educative
problems arose. Nowadays, nearly everybody accepts that
purely memorizing information is a bridge to nowhere."
