In this episode, Dr. Kuva Jacobs and I break down 4 major learning myths: the learning pyramid, the Forgetting Curve, learning styles, and microlearning as the answer to the world's problems. If you've encountered any of these on social media lately, you should tune in!

Kuva's passion for learning design seeded from a PhD in mathematics when she created visual, interactive, flash based modules that brought complex mathematical equations - like sorting algorithms and spring oscillations - to life.

This drive to create innovative learning solutions has led Kuva into the corporate space, where she's had the excitement of contributing to a wide range of learning & development projects, across all stages of their lifecycle.
