I have said before that the essence of effective communication is not to say what you mean, but to get the other person to understand what you intend. I think your post highlights that distinction very well.
This is fantastic, Lee. I have been a fan since the early days of Common Craft, when I found the videos so useful in my college classrooms and corporate training classes. They also inspired my company’s eventual foray into 2D animated explainer videos, which has been a lucrative line of business for us for many years. I too am fascinated by how different people learn and look forward to not only learning more from you as you explore this more deeply, but to having great and thoughtful conversations about it too!

Thanks, Richard. It's one of those things that seems so obvious when you say it, but has real power.
💯 explanation without cognitive science is like shooting in the dark - cognitive science shines a light on the target 😃
Great point! I love this. 🎯
