Hacker School talk - Learning for Hackers
The document discusses key ideas around learning in the hacking community, emphasizing that a hacker is defined by peers and that learning should be approached like coding. It introduces concepts such as the zone of proximal development, test-driven learning, and the importance of motivation in education, drawing from various theories in psychology. The document also highlights collaborative techniques like peer programming and the significance of creating a supportive learning environment.
