I got a lot of flack for teaching my students too "off the cuff" compared to other lab sections, which had a strict outline for the lab demonstrations. Turns out my students did better than the other labs. Also had multiple students thank me for treating them like a person vs a number. Wasn't hard to do, just had to be willing to make mistakes and be honest. One of the hardest things to overcome for a lot of teachers (especially new ones) is to answer a students question with the seemingly forbidden "I don't know". It actually creates a more engaged experience more often than not.

[@MadsterV]

Honestly, this was my biggest gripe in college and the main reason I had such a difficulty following along. It's very difficult for me to feel motivated to learn something if I don't see a reason or value in it. Now, it's obviously beneficial to understand that 2 + 2 = 4. These types of topics never gave me issues. However, things like code efficiency and Big O Notation always gave me troubles. Do I understand the benefit now? Yes. Did I learn it after I understood its importance and what it's good for? Most definitely. However, when I would ask a teacher, "what is the practical application of this?" and they would just respond, "I have to teach you this. You have to know it. You'll learn more about why you need it later, but right now you just need to understand this." It never helped. It always just added to the frustration. Give me the fireworks first, then tell me how they're made.

Everyone was always entertained because I'd say what was essentially the headline in a completely absurd and out-of-context way that got everyone interested, then I'd explain it in a less over-the-top manner, then I'd ramble about things I associated the event with. This was my favorite part about college, and I was told multiple times that I shouldn't be a student, but a professor. Conversely, I've tried making KZbin videos and blogs multiple times, and it's always dry and I almost can't think linearly.

I don't think sequential teaching is bad at all, it just needs more effort to produce seemingly (but not really) the same results. Self-contained teaching is a good way to teach a thing or two about a certain topic and may get someone to learn how to do a simple task, but ultimately if you want to get to really and thoroughly understand something you will have to bite the bullet in a sense. I do think that being tangential while teaching is incredibly helpful since it gives meaning to the act of learning something that would otherwise seem useless for that person (meaningless).

So maybe this is contextual or culture-related? However, in line with what you said, never have I had used the hamburger structure...

[@Andersson203]

It sounds like your version is close to the version I learned when I went to instructor school in the army. What we were taught was called something like "show, tell, do" or something like that. First the instructor shows the recruits what to do. Then the instructor shows it slowly explaining every step. Then the recruits start practicing under supervision. Most of the things you learn as a recruit are simple things but I've always had this in the back of my mind when teaching other things to people.

[@Tarik360]

Reminds me of a math and programming teacher who talked about using a certain problem we dealt with by talking about how he coded a stock-trading bot. I remember feeling a bit disheartened and stupid for not being able to do the same but also something else happened to my fresh 18 year old mind at the time: I more than anything became motivated to keep working on math and programming even though I sucked at it. So it's my anecdotal experience to a fairly decent programming teacher. Another was a guy who was trying to automate infrastructure on university.

[@linuxwizzerd5908]

I don't know if a proper term exists for the idea you proposed but I think conceptual linking would be a good name, where you can link seemingly discrete bits of information together to reach a conclusion.

Yes, this makes sense for me. Books are sequential, and thats good. Teaching might (should?) be different. I think these "ramblings" (or detours?) contribute a lot to learning. Often it's the sidenotes and remarks, that are not the main topic, enhance a lecture. I have experienced that often. But maybe it's good to have both styles of teaching - the sequential and the network-like/associative way - alternating.

Shit Luke I completely agree with your sentiment (is that a proper word?) anyways I've noticed In guitar lesson videos for example which I just started to watch, I see the sequential order and the first thing I notice is how the views significantly drop going into the second lesson+ lessons. I think learners also make the mistake of seeking this type of order. It's weird but funny how we as learners don't always catch what seems to feel disinteresting about it. Rambling might not be the right word but I have always enjoyed the slightest off topic, as you say to give people a glimpse of whats going on with your line of thinking on the matter. Plus you sound more genuine. Why the hell would you want to be boring to people when you want them to learn. I love the way you break things down and keep attention consistent. I wonder what vegans think of the hamburger method these days.

But is the hamburger too bloated, or not free and open source? Is it released under the GPL?

The ideas in this video are worth gold

[@symq]

crazy how many of my thoughts are expressed in your videos, thank you for doing good propaganda 😄 though regarding this particular topic, i think you can definitely let people choose for themselves wether they want to follow your sequential content instead of trying to get through to as many people as possible… depending on what you want to achieve

Really liked this video. I think a lot of the advice applies to just rhetoric broadly.

[@avi-brown]

Good example of rambling working well is Geohot's streams.

"let's find out" - someone has been watching too much varg vikernes :)

People used to build basements and fill them with the ice from the winter to keep stuff cold, it worked, so you can somehow refrigerate stuff just from primitive sources. And of course you can make a pot-in-pot refrigerator

i like these type of short helpful videos. thanks

[@ignisimmensus2568]

wow, you just mentioned the most detrimental disadvantage of nowadays teaching methods. thanks

[@sulli1189]

Did you just explain how to share information in the format you're explaining? nice

[@timdolinger1352]

What I absorbed by watching halfway through the video (short attention span; you nailed it) was that you gotta make the meat come earlier so you can get your money shot. Interesting metaphors.

10/10 wisdom, puts a lot of my education into perspective

[@schukaproallied9834]

[@ferouihamza]

finally someone mentioned it

[@ChristianTheChicken]

I haven't heard the burger method since like third grade. I had a flashback when Luke described it.
