And a whole lot of our received knowledge about how learning is supposed to work is really kinda wrong. But recent developments in the learning sciences are changing all that and revolutionizing our understanding of how our brains function best. It turns out there are ways to get more out of our efforts and to learn how to learn more effectively and efficiently.
