“So, what can we do about this? Well, to start with, we can address the problem of duration. Most classroom lectures are an hour long, but we encourage our instructors to break their lectures into smaller chunks, from 3-15 minutes long.”

“In my profession as a teacher, giving lectures on abstract subjects sometimes results in totally
blank expressions on the faces of my students. This raises a couple of questions on learning.
Can we learn things by listening passively? And secondly, can we help learning, by introducing a
second topic that works as a catalyst for learning? These questions seems to be separated but I
think they are deeply connected and relevant when working with education.”
