TTBOOK: Episode 081214A Reconsidering Crafts

The connection between hands-on learning and thinking is very important
People, even so-called "lower-level" workers care about doing a good job, and doing even menial jobs well.
The 10,000 hour rule. You have to do a task for 10,000 hours to do it correctly every time (not just the first time).
The line between art and craft is ambiguous
Renaissance Art - individual originality Craft - set of shared practices

dy/dan » Blog Archive » How Do You Solve A Problem Like Cigotie?

  • 3 Tom Hoffman


    This situation is common in teaching the arts to high school students. The kid who can draw a perfect reproduction of a photo from a magazine or can play a Led Zeppelin solo note for note. You just have to teach them, you know, the arts and humanities. With computers would be nice.


    But that’s what those disciplines are about.

    As you note, he may need some structured help to continue to make progress, but it seems a little early to be worried about the stage he’s currently in, no?
