How Origami Teaches Us How We Learn | Dr. Mark Johnson
What if there's a different way to think about developing skills? In this @MAGICademy conversation, Dr. Mark Johnson shares some fascinating insights through a simple paper-folding exercise that reveals something surprising about how we master new abilities.
