Show HN: Hacker News Academy — Interactive Mobile Courses for Enterpreneurs (hnacademy.com) 33 points by yurylifshits 12y ago ↗ HN
[–] yurylifshits 12y ago ↗ Here is what we’ve learned since our start at YC Hacks:— Best learning comes from fast cycles “challenge-action-feedback”.— Ideally, each learning cycle should be 30 seconds or less.— Learning with yes-no questions (tinder-style) is much more powerful that one can think.— Existing content is not ready for interactive content. Serious investment in content is necessary.— Interactive learning requires depth: ideally, at least 10 examples for each rule.— Mobile learning has high potential, especially for role-based training in the fields like sales, support, horeca, transportation.HN Academy was a temporary name for our hackathon project. We will rename soon.
