Ben, Ben and Blue 3b2ri

In the middle of a discussion that was meant to be about computer networking, we ended up diving into Eater's full career trajectory.  Stenhaug and I (Grant) were so fascinated by this that we decided to just pull that whole section of the discussion out as its own podcast.   Where to connect with us https://www.reddit.com/r/benbenandblue/ https://twitter.com/BenBenAndBlue https://www.patreon.com/benbenandblue Our channels https://www.youtube.com/c/beneater https://www.youtube.com/c/3blue1brown

The second Q&A session for 3blue1brown. We chose the questions that we thought made for the best discussion, which includes whether or not a knack for math is innate, favorite improv games, whether IT will always be an industry approachable to people who are self-taught without degrees, and many more. Question thread, with many more shorter answers from Grant.

What value does a college degree hold?  And to the extent that an elite university degree does provide some special benefit to its holder, is it a value that could hypothetically be made universal, or is it intrinsic to the exclusivity of the degree? The conversation here revolves around these questions, but not with a few tangents, including how David Labaree actually being a really nice guy and a certain absurd stance on the value of software engineering.

A conversation centered on David Labaree's paper "Public Goods, Private Goods: The American Struggle Over Educational Goals", as well as a few of our own views on what the goal of education should be.

Ben Stenhaug calls out Grant and Eater on the fact that they spent all of episode 2 talking about how people don't learn from lectures, but they create videos which are basically lectures.

As an experiment, after recording episode 3 we decided to simply record a completely unstructured conversation–whatever happened to be on our minds in that moment.  Among other things, this included the finicky nature of podcasts, checklists, Getting Things Done, and improv.

There's clearly some gravity towards a lecture-based classroom structure, even though we now know that this is not the best way for students to learn.  Here we discuss what the sources of that inertia might be. More from Ben Ben and Blue Secret episodes on the Patreon page the discussion at the subreddit Some of the first few of these we recorded we really fun, but the sound quality where we were was really...well...bad.  We didn't want to kick off the full podcast with them, but we do want to share them with someone, so you can now find them as a reward for anyone who chooses to contribute on Patreon. Some material brought up during this discussion Studies from Carl Wieman on ive vs. active learning See also this interview with Wieman about that study David Pengelly on overcoming the lecture-textbook trap
