How did we end up where the most common form of teaching is long-form, large-scale lecturing?
Schools, universities, churches, conferences...it’s all based around lots of people sitting in a room and being talked at for sometimes hours.

Is it just a product of trying to optimize for efficiency?
There are so many learning styles and I have to imagine lecture being one of the least efficient forms of knowledge transfer + uptake.
But maybe that’s just because it’s the least effective *for me*?

For a long time I thought “I’m terrible at learning”...but I eventually figured out I’m pretty amazing at it and actually love it.
It’s that traditional lecture-style teaching is essentially the worst form of teaching and communication for me.
