Tim O'Neill is an intern at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. He took a series of online courses to learn more about radio and television in Australia. But he found it hard to stay on top of his work, so decided to take another course. Now that he's got some time off for himself, he wants to get back into broadcasting full-time.
Mama always said: life is like a box of chocolates, and online learning is sometimes like one of those boxes where you don’t know which piece is delicious nougat and which piece is some sort of nasty, coconut-y cream. Well, maybe not your mama. But, it’s a big world, so, surely, there’s a mother out there somewhere who would agree with the sentiment. On this episode, the gang chatted with Google Consumer Insights Analyst Lizzie Allen-Klein about different learning styles and different approaches and options for learning new (and hard!) analytical skills. And there might have been an embarrassing interlude where Tim and Michael exhibited their respective possession of some Y-chromosomes.
