They said I was responsible for my own learning, but I don’t know where to start or what to do. It feels haphazard. Real Learning is based on what neurologists and learning scientists have found to be most effective. Do-it-yourself learning.

- 16. Copyright 2015 byJay Cross 16 I learn bits and pieces, sometimes without even realizing it. In the end, it all comes together, and superior performance is the result.
