Interesting podcast episode here (you can listen from your browser from the link below) from a professor studying the emotions that drive learning. The good news? Confusion seems to be the best path towards clarity. So judging by the amount of political and economic confusion around, let's hope so! Ep 267: Productive Confusion with Jeremiah Sullins | The Psych Files This professor is studying how we can create better learning environments and methods. He challenges the orthodoxy that learning should be made easier and more comfortable. Education should not be driven by customer satisfaction!! If anything, customer dissatisfaction might be a better measure... teachers everywhere will rejoice!
