This reminds me a lot of the work of psychologist Carl Rogers, especially
his essay "Personal Thoughts on Teaching and Learning." He claims that
nothing of import can be taught. "The only learning that significantly
changes behavior is self-directed, self-appropriated learning."

Now, how you design a curriculum for such learning is another matter... :)
