Episode notes

When talking to people, it's clear that some are coming with more of a background in the topics you're interested in than others. You can very quickly understand someone's depth in a topic by either one question or one sentence that you said looking at the person's reaction. I'm certainly not deep in certain areas and there's probably further I could go in every area that I am familiar with. But the depth that which I'm at my interpretation at which I'mat, I try and map to the person I'm speaking to.

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.
