Metalearning, The Four Hour Chef, and Instructional Design: The eLearning Coach
Metalearning, The Four Hour Chef, and Instructional Design: The eLearning Coach:
"My ears perked up when I heard the word metalearning in an interview with the author of The Four Hour Chef, a new book by Tim Ferriss. I was curious how metalearning—roughly defined as learning how to learn—related to a cook book.
I wondered if the author had devised a new speed learning model based on experience that could be applied to instructional design."
