À propos de cet audio

Even on good days, teaching is a challenging profession. One way to make the job of college instructors easier, however, is to know more about the ways students learn. How Humans Learn aims to do just that by peering behind the curtain and surveying research in fields as diverse as developmental psychology, anthropology, and cognitive neuroscience for insight into the science behind learning.

The result is a story that ranges from investigations of the evolutionary record to studies of infants discovering the world for the first time, and from a look into how our brains respond to fear to a reckoning with the importance of gestures and language. Joshua R. Eyler identifies five broad themes running through recent scientific inquiry - curiosity, sociality, emotion, authenticity, and failure - devoting a chapter to each and providing practical takeaways for busy teachers. He also interviews and observes college instructors across the country, placing theoretical insight in dialogue with classroom experience.

There is some good content in this book. However, there is also a lot of "fluff" content that could have been left out. The narrator sounds like it is an AI bot; I wouldn't be surprised if it actually is one. The prosody (intonation, stress, rhythm) of the narration is extremely formulaic and repetitive; it sounds very unnatural. It becomes hard to listen to after more than 5 or 10 minutes at a time.

Good content, annoying narrator
