PickVidsBest Education & learning Videos
「Education & learning」下面有73部被不同的人、在不同月份推荐过的视频。挑的时候先看对象：入门4部，适合还没学过的人；进阶2部，适合已经懂术语的人；普通向67部，按兴趣就能看；更硬的0部，留给想看推导或细节的人。这一类数量最多的是演讲，所以它们的共同点是一位讲者把一个判断讲完，例子是为了撑住这个判断。常出现的频道包括TED、Veritasium、TEDx Talks。目录给这个主题划的范围是：Education: teaching methods, Khan Academy, learning how to learn, computers in education, Seymour Papert, Logo, constructionism, university system, school reform, AI tutoring, memory techniques.如果只看三部，就从《How to Speak》开始，它负责把问题讲出画面；然后看《Confessions of a Converted Lecturer: Eric Mazur》，换一种讲法或例子；最后看《Marty Lobdell - Study Less Study Smart》，留给已经有基础的人。页面按每页24部切开，顺序看的是被推荐跨越了多少个月，不是播放量。每条标题下面那一句是这部片子自己的内容说明，用来区分它在讲定义、过程、演示还是观点。点进去能看到推荐原话、原文链接和适合谁看。看的时候把强烈推荐当成有人明确叫你去看，把引用当成只是拿来举例，把批评留下来对照，不要把每条评论都当成同一力度。
