Better Practice
Deliberate Practice
"Deliberate Practice." Worst. Name. Ever. — Kathy Sierra
Design practice sessions
Clear & specific outcome
95% improvement
Small & focussed sessions
“Shoot the basketball into the hoop while standing 3m from
the hoop at a 45º angle”
“Analyze the cockpit instruments and determine the plane’s attitude within
5 seconds”
“Write & run a program (without errors) that accesses and
displays data from this database.”
కӂب
Too Hard?
Break the skill down
Reduce performance criteria
Practice makes permanent Locks in whatever is practiced
Half-a-Skill beats Half-assed skill
Not all practice should be deliberate practice
"Work on a project, e.g. create a small game in
a new programming language"
"Work through a step-by- step tutorial"
"Listen to a lecture or a presentation"
Figure out what do deliberate practice
Playing/ performing/ discovery still important
"Badass" by Kathy Sierra "Brain Rules" by John Medina "The
Talent Code" by Daniel Coyle
