This podcast is a great exploration of #openscience and why Mind & Life built @MindRxiv!

Nice reminder that “covering content” doesn’t mean it sticks. Making learning relevant, presenting content in multiple ways, time for practice and reflection, and checking for understanding (amongst others) all vital to move content into long term memory.
Me: HOLD THIS. Seriously. Pls. Memory: Nah.
