Hmmm that's interesting. Almost any study I've seen implies that the most efficient way of learning is see-do. I think what makes Pluralsight and similar training videos work for me is having multiple big monitors (3x 27'') with the training video, IDE and browser easily visible at any time.
- joshpadnick 12y agoI hear you on that. I guess Pluralsight is like a "course on demand" and requires an hour or more of sit-down time, whereas Safari is really "ad hoc learning".
- andrewsavikas 12y agoAs Tim said, Safari is actually both (2000+ on-demand video courses plus all the books and a bunch of conference videos). And in our usage data, we see most people do both things -- short "ad hoc" learning, especially during the work day, with longer sessions of activity, both in video and books, in the evenings. The trend is especially pronounced with mobile devices, as mobile usage peaks on the weekend and includes a much longer average session length than we see on the desktop.
