I was a part of another podcast (see HERE). This one I'm not as proud of. This one I was determined NOT to go down the same road of VR, spaced practice and adaptive learning. Guess what? I did. Anyone who wants to hear it . . . check it out HERE or the others HERE.
It wasn't my fault! The host, Mark, wanted and almost forced me to talk about these things. I don't blame him. VR, because of Meta and Covid and other industry drivers are making VR a bigger and bigger part of the world. So, here I am, writing a dissertation on the effectiveness of VR, so what else do you talk about?
Truth, I wanted to talk about the uniqueness of our learning community. Contractors have not gotten great training in the past. Our job is to fix that. But, when I read studies about adult learning, I see that most of the participants of the studies are female and college-educated. I wonder to what degree the studies and what they find and conclude actually represent what our adult-learning community needs and wants.
The other issue, Mark sounds so smart. I sound stupid! I think it's the British vs Texas accent. Still, it was fun to meet Mark, I hope I get a sequel.
