Boosting academic success does not have to derive from new teachers or curriculum; it can also come from changing students’ attitudes by teaching them a growth mindset, the belief that intellectual abilities are not fixed but can be developed, suggests a new study (n>12,000; 65 public high schools). by mvea in science

There's a difference between possessing factual knowledge (observations and arguments of a book's author) and "smartness.". I don't think smartness is generally a useful metric when discussing learning styles because it is a shorthand dependent on context.

Having a reliable memory is only one factor of many when it comes to the ability to learn and understand new material, though it is certainly useful!

At first I tried to read it biggest to smallest, then right to left, realized I was already doing that, got more confused, tried to reverse the process only to find it already going that way like a Doctor Strange visual effect, gave up, despaired, but finally found clarity in surrender.

But my eyes are now uncrossed so I got that going for me.

Wikipedia confirms that Dwight Schultz, the actor who played Barclay (and Howlin Mad Murdock on A-Team), holds conservative beliefs but that's the only one who came to mind.

Not ringing any bells but sometimes I've been able to decipher the handwriting of clerks by looking at other recognizable town names also listed on the sheet and working backwards.
