Really? I learned an amazing amount about virology in the last 3 months, taking a couple online courses, studying the textbook, and listening to This Week in Virology (TWIV). I have also spent a lot of time on Machine Learning (for example, Andrew Ng's Coursera course) and more textbooks. I can't read your article due to the paywall. Perhaps you only talk about children learning. I remember my friend Bob and I "wasting" our after-school and weekends playing with our chemistry sets as kids. We also built model rockets powered by vinegar and alka-selter tablets. You don't need a formal setting to learn. You just need interesting material. Any kids with an interest in science would definitely love "games" like this Nuke plant simulator https://www.prepintl.com/nuclear-power-plant-simulation-game/ https://www.prepintl.com/nuclear-power-plant-simulation-game... Or the Microsoft flight simulator. Or... you get the idea. My kids learned to swim in a backyard pool. They now swim like fish. I took "swimming lessons" for 4 summers at school and I still can't swim. School is neither the best place, nor the only place where learning occurs. So, no, "the results are NOT in".
