Dave Hopla Dave Hopla is the US's top shooting coach and hugely entertaining. Watching someone put 405 out of 408 shots through the hoop is astonishing. Even more astounding is the fact that Dave does his talk as he shoots. Dave's message is pure -- learning is about memory, and skills need to be practiced to be learned. Most of what we learn fades quickly from short-term memory. To push learning from short to long term memory, you need to practice, regularly and often. The lesson we have to learn is that the 'sheep-dip' experience is wildly unproductive, unless this is follow-through and practice. If those in the learning game have one lesson to learn, this is it. The classroom and many business courses completely ignore this principle, yet it is the formula for success in most types of learning. |
