I don't want to teach like that. I want my students to EXPERIENCE knowledge and gain the skills necessary to EVALUATE the world around them. Why should my students believe anything I teach them (or that they read on the Internet)?
I don't want to become the teacher that is putting on a performance or spoon feeding my students. Almost every college class I've taken has involved the teacher lecturing and testing over what was said in class. Occasionally we are assigned a chapter of the textbook to read, but usually the professor covers what was in the chapter in class (so there's no reason to read it).
