Instruction + Entertainment = Education

It’s a mistake to think teaching is only about instruction, not entertainment. A teacher’s job is to make the material interesting. Teachers are supposed to bring their subjects to life.

On the other hand, it’s also a mistake to think teaching is only about entertainment, not instruction. A teacher’s job is to make the fun educational. Teachers are supposed to share their short cuts.

Instruction plus entertainment – without either, it’s not teaching. Without either, it’s just instruction or just entertainment.
