I think it's funny, this is going to relate to something I'm planning on doing in 2023. The way the educational system shapes and molds our inspection, introspection and outside perception of academic articles. When you say scientists, everyone stereotypically is thinking of someone in a lab coat,. Someone with a degree looking down microscopes. And they will think of academics as people that are really smart, no loads of big words have done loads of degrees on chalkboards writing up physics equations without any idea what they mean. But we know that failure is needed for learning. So the educational system perpetuates this, don't fail, don't get it wrong. Try not to take too

Danny Hatcher is a Youtuber, Blogger, and Author contributing to the conversation around educational science. He hosts a podcast called The Personal Knowledge Management Podcast, where he discusses topics in the field of PKM, like overcoming perfectionism, assessing note quality, extended mind theory, and more. To help him with all his research and creation, he uses Notion for collaborative efforts and Obsidian for personal notetaking.

We talked about how to navigate academic research, the problems with academia, how knowledge is built over time, and the issues in traditional University education. This conversation really made me question the way I teach and learn things. Talking to Danny is profound because he questions you when you say something that conflicts with itself. He made me realize just how much creating a shared definition of certain labels is critical to having a productive conversation. I don't think I will ever come to conversations the same.
