"Why are we bad at learning stuff?"
"We can't see learning. Like I can't open up your head and see whether you've learned fractions or like how to shoot a basketball properly or know how a particular art technique."
"When does something become truly learned? Can you hold onto a piece of information for eternity without using it on a regular basis?"
In this episode, Singh discusses the difference between learning and performance.

Singh emphasizes the importance of revisiting information over time to ensure long-term learning. The conversation also touches on the challenges of assessing learning versus performance and the idea of when something can be considered truly learned. The hosts and Singh discuss the implications of these concepts for teachers and the need to prioritize learning over simply teaching to perform.
