The newsletter for
people who design
how others learn.

Twice a week, Andy sends one short, honest read from inside Learning Rewired Lab — an argument worth having, and a move you can use Monday. No fluff, no funnel. Published on LinkedIn so you can read, save, and argue back in the comments.

Two sends a week

An argument on Tuesday. A move on Friday.

Every issue does one job and gets out of your way. One half makes you think differently about learning work; the other half hands you something to use. That’s the whole promise.

A Tuesday · The argument

A short, honest take.

One oversimplified idea in learning, design, or AI — named, questioned, and turned into a clearer way to think. The kind of read you forward to the person who needs it.

B Friday · The move

Something you can use.

A small, practical move from inside the Lab: a rewrite, a question to ask in your next review, a pattern to steal. Designed to be useful before the weekend.

AI No. 40

AI is a brilliant intern, not a mind reader.

AI can move fast, connect ideas, and produce useful drafts. But better results come from better direction. Prompt writing is becoming part of the modern learning designer’s craft.

Practice No. 39

Stop confusing activity with practice.

Clicking, dragging, sorting, and answering are not automatically skill-building. Practice should help people make decisions, get feedback, reflect, and transfer.

Feedback No. 38

Learner feedback should coach, not grade.

Right and wrong isn’t enough when the goal is better judgment. A three-line rewrite that turns any incorrect answer into a next move.

Memory No. 37

Designing for forgetting.

If people need to remember, decide, or act later, first exposure isn’t the finish line. Build for retrieval, reinforcement, and support.

Product No. 36

Stop asking how long the course should be.

Length is the wrong starting point. Clarify what people need to do differently when it’s over, then the format picks itself.

4 min · Jun 20 Read on LinkedIn

Systems No. 35

Learning experiences are systems, not events.

Learning breaks when we treat the event as the whole solution. Practice, support, manager behavior, tools, and feedback all count.

AI No. 34

Prompt writing is becoming a learning-design skill.

Prompting isn’t a technical trick. It’s a way to clarify intent, constraints, and learner needs before you generate anything.

Evidence No. 33

Kirkpatrick fails when we use it too late.

Evaluation isn’t a post-launch ritual. The best evidence starts while the problem and behavior are still being defined.

The best part of a public newsletter: reply, push back, or add your read in the comments. The Lab reads them.
