Im skeptical of this kind of educational material.
It seems like they want to provide the feeling and the aesthetic of learning, but aren't willing to dig in to the hard work of it.
- mjburgess 5y agoI think it has a lot to do with the people producing it just not being educators; at least, not for years and not with the 100s/1000s of students necessary to build up those skills. And a lot of the training for technical educators is based around technical learning being tool-based; where you do just need a series of short videos on a GUI. It's a complex problem. I am aware, however, that a lot of people working in online learning think that this is a good style. I believe as it helps with learner engagement. I have to think, however, that this is just because there's nothing actually challenging to engage with.
