52. “A
few
mo(vated
groups,
such
as
older
employees
trying
to
keep
pace,
reservists
in
the
US
military
and
ambiXous
youngsters
in
places
such
as
India,
tend
to
finish
online
degrees.
But
most
people,
including
Mr
Thrun’s
enrollees,
rapidly
lose
interest.
The
real
challenge
facing
US
educators,
in
other
words,
is
to
mo(vate
the
unenthused
majority.
This
is
far
easier
said
than
done.
You
can
lead
a
horse
to
water
but
you
cannot
make
it
drink.”
