Lectures Are Not Learning
Most of us believe that lecture time is learning time, but the fact is that they are only effective when one is already familiar with the material being taught.

Confirmation Bias is not Learning
When we only hear opinions that confirm our beliefs, our learning is incremental at best. Like our social media bubble: We read the same sites, listen to the same friends (who agree with us!), and watch the same news over and over, which only confirms what we already believe.
We learn the ...
Slow learning and the power of mistakes
- Fast and easy is a no-go when it comes to learning. Painful and uncompetitive as it may sound, slow and difficult is the proper approach to learning.
