In daily conversations, people often use labels without truly knowing what those labels mean to the other person as well as us. How do you balance not questioning every word that someone says in a conversation? I have obviously my own interpretations and meaning behind words. And so I can grasp connections easier with those terms that I'm familiar with. If they use a term that I know, I know what's the typical use of the term, that will be my default assumption. And I will work with that assumption until they say something that conflicts with what my assumption would be.
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.
