    1. ingle team can’t develop every possible solution to a given problem.

      This is an extremely important concept, no one team can create every solution possible most time workers do what works despite what would, in theory work better. Developing a new work flow involves a series of tests and a change in boundaries that might be risky for the company at large. But no one team knows every solution and multiple teams coming at a problem is good.

    2. wide variety of methods for any given project.

      Having a variety of methods to get to a solution is exteremely important as a lot of people can come at a problem with different angles and solve it differently. However, this can breed confusion as to which way is the "right" way and which way is the "wrong way" It also may seem like their way might not work but we should do a though examination from their side to see why they think it might work and maybe square that up with the harsh reality.

    1. Big tech has benefited from an educational dynamic that consistently underfunds public education but demands increased technology to prepare the workers of the future, providing low-cost solutions in exchange for data and the potential for future product loyalty

      This is a pattern most of us are familiar with. The best example I know is Apple's launch of the iPad in LA schools without saying, or knowning, how it will be used. Apple has a long history of testing its products out on users. Google habitually does the same, offering products for "free" in exchange for data and expanding a user base for its products.

    1. Handling 401s well is important for the user's experience. They won't happen often (though more often than I expected), but really do break everything if you're not careful. Getting a good authentication abstraction library for Vue or Ember or whatever you are using should help with a lot of the boring parts. You'll probably need to define some extra strategies/rules for this cookie session approach, but if it's anything like in ember-simple-auth they're so simple it feels like cheating, because the Rails app is doing all of the hard work and you just need the js part to spot a 401 and handle logging in and retrying whatever it was doing before.

    1. This text is a less about Going Further and more about Getting Started: By using (or even better, adapting and remixing) this text as the floor plan for enrichment or development, we can and ought to be critical of our work under the guise of improving student experiences.

      move up? feels top-line.

    2. With the future in flux for all of higher ed, especially in more marginalized settings such as all-women and historically black colleges and universities, this type of collaboration is not only a positive step, but highly encouraged.

      I think I'd move this up to your intro.

    1. As a genius of construction man raises himself far above the bee in the following way: whereas the bee builds with wax that he gathers from nature, man builds with the far more delicate conceptual material which he first has to manufacture from himself. In this he is greatly to be admired, but not on account of his drive for truth or for pure knowledge of things.
