<\/a>In This Episode<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

How can you get your Kickstarter<\/a> idea funded? Is it possible to be immune to a brain freeze? What would cause successful college students to abandon their degrees?<\/p>\n

Hey there, Innovation Nation! Today we’re talking entrepreneurship, and at the center is one of my favorite topics – learning how to learn. Alexander Pope<\/strong> said,<\/p>\n

\n

“A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring.”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

…learning how to learn itself is a really dangerous skill to have. Once tasted, the spring of knowledge spoils our ability to live an average life. ~ Andrew Lein<\/div>His assertion was that if we learn, we should go all the way. On the podcast today, Andrew Lien<\/strong> asserts that the idea of learning how to learn itself is a really dangerous skill to have. Once tasted, the spring of knowledge spoils our ability to live an average life.<\/p>\n

We believe this idea so strongly that we’ve built a whole company around it, including one of our favorite activities–Inventor’s Bootcamp<\/strong>. We fill a room with 3D printers, embedded processors, sensors, 3D design software, and computers for programming, and then set students free to discover that ever dangerous idea: I can learn on my own. In every class, several students are set free to discover the universe without the limits imposed by others.<\/p>\n

Our guests from JuiceBoxx<\/strong> today do not sugar coat their feelings about formal learning. They aren’t hostile to traditional learning, but they have learned how to learn, and that, my friends, has proven to be a very dangerous skill for them.<\/p>\n
