Highlights: Barbara Oakley | Learning How to Learn | Talks at Google

Here's a mashup of great moments from the Talks at Google event with Professor of Engineering Barbara Oakley, as she discusses her book "A Mind for Numbers". Dr. Oakley offers the tools you need to get a better grasp of that intimidating but inescapable field and lets us in on the secrets to effectively learning math and science—secrets that even dedicated and successful students wish they’d known earlier.

Man... I'm 40 years old and now I know I've been learning the wrong way. This should be mandatory content in schools. I wish I had known this 25 years ago. Thank you for this Dr Oakley!

Definitely a fan of her work, she has a great online course.

I would have liked to see more of the actual talk instead of the discussion afterwards. Here on Youtube it looks like as we are missing important parts. Very inspiring woman!

I remember my English teacher and how she made a link with the word Clock and the sound of a clock in order to make her students to memorize. Quite similar to the example of the Duck and the Pato.

The talk was good but the highlight was not. Instead of highlighting her story, you should've highlighted the major lessons.

This highlight was definitely not what highlights are supposed to look like. Noticed that I could skip first 6 minutes but then realized I could do the same for remaining 3 minutes as well.

It's all good and well, but how do I learn learning to learn?

This highlight sucks, the original one is far more than that

Get in touch with God if you want to get in touch with yourself.
