#159- Filling the Trough

Online Great Books Podcast

This week, Scott and Karl are off, so we'll flashback to July 2019, for a very relevant conversation from a very different world.

Scott and OGB producer Brett discuss pedagogy and dominant learning theories, as Scott aspires to be a better Starting Strength coach and a more effective interlocutor at Online Great Books. We begin our discussion with an exploration of the common learning theories practiced in public school and higher education, along with a cost/benefit analysis of each: behaviorism, cognitivism, and (social) constructivism. We also touch on connectivism and mindset theory.
