#12 Ana Fabrega & Chrisman Frank - Learning via Games, Problem Solving, & First Principles

Update: 2021-03-30

Description

This week I have two guests from Synthesis: co-founder and CEO, Chrisman Frank, as well as Chief Evangelist, Ana Fabrega. Synthesis is a weekly enrichment program where students learn through "simulations".

Synthesis was born out of Ad Astra, a school started by Elon Musk and Josh Dahn for students of SpaceX employees.

We talk about the value of games in learning, why “how” you learn is more important than “what”, & more.
