#GuildChat for 8/16/19: Learning from the Wrong Way

Our next #GuildChat takes place Friday, August 16th at 11am PT / 2pm ET. Our topic for this week’s chat is on learning from the wrong way.

Learning can come through success, by taking the challenging paths and through failures. It’s this last one we look to explore this week on GuildChat. But we expect to go beyond lessons learned and look more closely at how we can leverage failure in learning solution design, why we struggle with conflicting information, how we can recognize the wrong way in learning something new to either avoid it or if we are farther down the road, how to back out.

Join us this week as we look at the wrong paths and how taking them can be beneficial for us as well as how we can help others leverage these times to improve their understanding and skills.

Prospective questions:

Q1 What’s something you learned that you eventually found out was wrong? How did you feel?
Q2 What’s challenging about unlearning incorrect information?
Q3 How do you differentiate a solution as failing as opposed to just missing the mark? Which is best for you to learn from?
Q4 What approaches can you take to effective design solutions when you know your audience has knowledge that’s inaccurate, out-of-date, or only partially correct?
Q5 What approaches can you take to effective design solutions when you know your audience has knowledge that’s inaccurate, out-of-date, or only partially correct?
Q6 How can you best use non-examples to help people learn?
Q7 What ways can we help people learn to better evaluate sources for information to ensure they’re accurate?
Q8 How can you leverage others in moving people away from misinformation or a bad process?
