“This is what people buy when they’re buying a degree.” !
– Michael Staton, Learn Capital
Discussion
• Do you think that a bringing technology into a classroom can make a classroom more “human”?
• Do you think that teachers should be replaced by computers?
Josh Kaufman’s Accelerated Learning model
1. Deconstruct the skill
2. Learn enough to self-correct
3. Remove practice barriers
4. Practice at least 20 hours
Group work
• Do you think that accelerated learning works?
• Have you ever learned a new skill quickly?
• If so, what was your approach? What worked and what didn’t?
