bulimic learning

When information gets crammed into one's head in a very short period of time, only to be purged onto tests/quizzes. One can only hope some educational nuggets have been retained. Common in modular curriculum at vocational colleges.
That medical assistant program is totally bulimic learning. How do they expect us to know all that in six weeks?

Asynchronous Learning

When school systems are too lazy to let kids go back to school, and too lazy to even try to do virtual learning, they rely on "Asynchronous Learning" where they let the kids teach themselves.
Why is that kid dumb as fuck?
It's because he did Asynchronous learning.

summit learning

a way to get students to slowly fail at life is compared to getting a million paper cuts all over your foreskin and bathing in a bath of blue food dyed vodka while simultaneously grinding your teeth against a cheese grader as you listen to its everyday bro on constant repeat for ten hours

Landmine Learning

When a child encounters an explicit or adult topic or phrase they don't understand, and they ask an adult about it, or regurgitate it in some fashion. In stead of calmly explaining to the child the adult nature of the topic or phrase, the adult "blows up" and punishes the child for being inappropriate, often not explaining why it's inappropriate.
Landmine Learning example:

Child- "Mommy, what's a dildo?"
Adult- "What?? Where did you hear that!?"
Child- "From a kid at school..."
Adult- "I don't ever want to hear you say that again. Go to your room!!!"

Deep learning

Deep learning is an education technique which is becoming increasingly popular in the recent years.

In deep learning, the teacher collects a huge set of quizzes which are then given to the students to solve. The students get through an enourmous number of questions and through the repetitive process, the students learn to solve the quizzes.

One method of deep learning is done with a teacher. The teacher grades each quiz that a student does. The students improve their ability through redoing quizzes they have failed to do well in. This method has seen the most success in classrooms where the quizzes have definite answers such as in biology.

The other type of deep learning is done without a teacher. The teacher doesn’t tell the students what the right answer is, encouraging discussion between the students. This method allows students to learn better in actual exams as they’re more adapted to think and solve unseen quizzes. This is also very cost effective as no teachers are required to be present.

Convolutional deep learning and adversial learning are other common techniques. The convolutional technique convolutes the entire class to join the discussion, allowing rapid learning for difficult quizzes. Adversial learning lets a pair of students compete against each other. Given a set of quizzes, one student attempts to solve the quiz and the other checks the answer. Points are given when they manage to solve a quiz and correct an answer respectively.
I heard that students who were taught in private schools where they employ deep learning, perform up to 50% better in the workforce.
