The internet is an ocean of learning resources that can educate you on virtually any topic under the sun. That was perhaps the earliest pitch for the internet — you could learn about anything, from basic preschool science to advanced quantum computing, without leaving your home. We may have deviated a bit from that original idea thanks to endless distractions, but if you look hard enough, the internet still serves that purpose.
So far, I’ve relied on a mix of platforms to refresh my basic science concepts and stay updated on new approaches in journalism. My main problem wasn’t adapting to each platform’s different learning styles; it was finding exactly what I wanted to learn on the 10-odd mainstream platforms I know of.
