Metacognition

Learning how we learn. Principles from https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/head-first-object-oriented/0596008678/pr07.html:

1. Putting words within the pictures they describe
2. Conversational writing style - it's like being engaged with another person, as opposed to listening to a dry lecture
3. Pictures say 1024 words
4. Redundancy - say things in many different ways.
5. Humor, surprise, interest. Do creative, unforgettable things.
6. Include activities and practice
7. Use multiple learning styles - big picture, step-by-step, or code example.
8. We include content for both sides of your brain, because the more of your brain you engage, the more likely you are to learn and remember, and the longer you can stay focused. Since working one side of the brain often means giving the other side a chance to rest, you can be more productive at learning for a longer period of time.

1. Unschooling - evaluating old concepts to determine if they still hold true.
2. Adding visual learning, augmented reality, design exercises, and build exercises.
