    I love how people are saying the first part was scripted due to the amount of knowledge the child had. Yet, the Physicist actually looked a bit perplexed at times and truly taken aback. Especially when he began to realise he needs to up his game for this level already and his prepared questions.

    • @welstnitmere3583
      @welstnitmere3583 2 года назад +74

      To me, it just looked like the physicist felt a mixture of awkward/irk because the kid kept talking about what he knew without being asked, which makes it hard for the physicist to continue what he needed to explain (for the viewers). Kids naturally lack awareness and the physicist didn't want to react negatively towards it.

      The entire goal of understanding is to be able to explain - if you can't properly explain the topic, you don't understand it enough yourself, especially in a field as complex and yet easy-to-analogize as physics. The maths behind physics is important, sure, but the real meat is in the conceptualization and the ability to tie topics together, even when it might not seem related on the surface. In other fields, you might be able to get away with not being great at explaining your topic (I don't know - I am, shockingly, a physicist, lol), but you can't do that in physics. Everything connects to everything else, and the whole point of the field is to draw those lines.

I was very lucky to have an AP Physics teacher in high school and a wide faculty of physicists in college who were extremely passionate about the topic. We went over the math to be sure we could do it, but the vast majority of our time was spent drawing connections and trying to really drill the meaning of the concepts into our heads.

    I really enjoyed these kind of videos, it's very educational. Even though I didn't understand all of the things they are saying as I'm not capable of storing large information into my brain like they can and because English is not my first language, I still want to watch more.
    Edit: I also love that the experts in these videos, like, encourage the people they are talking with to think and asks about their opinions or their current knowledge about the topic. They don't start off with explaining stuff and don't just let others listen to them. I wish this is what they do in schools, but I get that they were able to do this because it's a one-to-one conversation and not like any classroom setups where there is only one teacher/prof and then there are 40 or more students listening and wanting to share their knowledge.

      I don't get why people think kids are dumb, I understood this well as a kid, and I certainly am not a genius. Now, I couldn't always put into words the things I understood, as I simply didn't know the words or how to structure them together, but kids are not as stupid (much of the time) as people imagine xD.

      Actually I would say people dumb-down as they grow into adulthood, much of the time, simply because society expects them to do so, and this is because I have observed that in my own life. To put it simply: Peer pressure's a... lol
      But, that's why I think so few try to be thinkers.
