What’s Useful for Learning

by Jeff Cobb

I sent out a tweet on this one, but Clark Aldrich’s brief post on Four Intellectual Traps for Understanding Learning merits a blog post as well, IMHO. In it, Clark calls out the following as not (wholly) useful for learning:

1. School

2. Books, magazines, and movies

3. Professional (or other highly structured) sports

4. Computer games

I refer you to the post itself for more detail – and the promise of more to come.
