Demystify: 

This is indeed what we all seek - wisdom. It is so critically important to allow quiet time for the brain to process inputs rather than fill up every spare moment with new inputs. The young are also victims of the current speeded up information flow.

 

Thank you Monona,

Something Monique said really bothered me:

I say video because I
cannot see my son's generation searching archives to read anything
because they prefer to watch things.

And this is why I also despair of this future generation.  It is science-lite to watch those videos and take those on-line trainings. 

 

I've done pod casts, had lectures videoed, and developed the slides and tests for on-line training.  I feel badly after seeing or hearing every one because I know I had to skip along on the mountain tops and never get down in the dark valleys between the peaks.  And without out understanding the entire terrain, the audience leaves elated by a false impression that they understand what I've said.  Instead, they know what I've concluded, but have no clue about the process used to reach those conclusions.

 

In contrast, the written word exists without the distraction of the performance.  It can be more thoughtfully and accurately composed to avoid any misunderstanding.  It can take the time and words to explain the thought processes and concepts that factor into the conclusions.   

 

The only person I ever saw who got both the performance and the full story together was a very old professor in the 1950s who taught basic organic chemistry.  I only remember him by the name we all called him which was Pappy Klein.  He would teach each reaction by the steps various researchers took to figure out the principles, even going down some of the blind alleys that had to be abandoned.  So we saw the process.  And he would delay the final reaction products just a nano-second too long so that almost all of us could make that final leap just before he showed it.  And now, we owned it.

 

Now THAT was performance-teaching.  No big grins, flashy demos, or cheer-leading.  Instead, a  ballet for the mind.  

 

It won't work today. The young are now lost to us. Attention deficit is the new norm.

I would second that emotion.  The wealth of knowledge here is just incredible.

Well, there are 6 YouTubes of clips from my Vaudeville act.  It's just a matter of bringing in a film crew.   I do have some heavy grant money I'm not sure what to do with.  Maybe.......  I'll think on it.

Monona,

You need to record all of your talks and start a YouTube channel?

In fact, many of you with such deep safety knowledge and experience
need to do this before you retire.  PLEASE!!!  I say video because I
cannot see my son's generation searching archives to read anything
because they prefer to watch things.

Best,

Monique
