Strange, I came to the conclusion that people not interested in a subject won't retain information about that subject because they don't care about the subject.
I can think of several topics off-hand that no matter how someone tried to teach me, how many resources they gave me, or what the "learning process" was designed as: I wouldn't care to learn a thing. Zilch. I'm not interested, kindly buzz off and let me do things I'm actually interested in.
Actually - that's exactly why I dropped out of school in freshman year and became an autodidact. I was sick of others telling me what to learn about and thought my time would be better spent teaching myself about things I actually care about.
I 'lucked out' and got a job I enjoy doing things I enjoy because I did things I enjoyed instead of things I didn't enjoy. I'm puzzled how other people could reason to themselves that the reason I didn't become a doctor or a lawyer was because of the learning process and not because of my complete lack of interest.
How come the learning process is only relevant to STEM fields? Especially "tech"?
