I’m curious to try to transfer this approach further to ’Learning by Modeling’. Not only as in mathematical modeling but whatever technology (writing is a technology in a way) best fits the project.
If we can make authoring of explorable explanations (examples, description) more effective, I think that would be a better approach than video and images.
Bret Victor is a good example of a communicator that is excellent at distillation, e.g. his posts Media for Thinking the Unthinkable and Learnable Programming. I think his works score very high on the accessibility factor (see the RAIN framework).
Thanks for describing your process! 🙂
