[EN] Learning How to Learn (and Teach) - Barbara Oakley
Manage episode 399438181 series 2909423
With her online course 'Learning How to Learn' (and companion book 'A Mind for Numbers'), Barbara Oakley, distinguished professor in engineering, reached many of us who - like myself - wanted to improve the way we learn, adopt new technologies or get into complex subject areas.
Many researchers, PhD students, post-docs teach themselves how to program while trying to get their thesis or work done. But how do you go about it.
I hope this interview gives some food for thought on how to get better with learning (and teaching).
