The Snowflake Effect in Learning and Research
•
0 likes•344 views
The document discusses the "Snowflake Effect" in learning and research. It notes that as learning resources become abundant online, there is a need for personalized learning approaches that are "just right" for each individual learner. It provides examples from music recommendation services that analyze individual preferences to recommend new music. The document argues that a "snowflake" approach can help address the problems of information overload and filter failure that arise from an abundance of online learning content.
