Ep. 46: Which Learning Strategies Do & Don't Work With Expert Dr. Daniel T. Willingham
In this episode we’re joined by Daniel T. Willingham, a professor of psychology from the University of Virginia.
Dr. Daniel T. Willingham earned his Ph.D in cognitive psychology from Harvard, and he spent about 8 years focusing on the brain basis of learning and memory. Today, his research is focused on the cognitive psychology behind K-16 education.
We talk about cognitive psychology, techniques that work, techniques that don’t, and some of the challenges facing the outdated education system in most countries. There are a ton of take-homes in this episode, and it is applicable not just to kids or teens or parents, but also to anyone who wants to learn more effectively, at any age.
