Editing A-B Testing (section)

==On Youtube==

Eric mentions '''A/B Testing''' in an appearance on [https://youtu.be/XbKXeVOUQYY?t=1532 Impact Theory] in the context of adding “differential diagnosis” to our educational toolkit:

<blockquote>
'''Eric:''' "One of the things I believe is that we're not taught subjects in a way that maximally benefits the largest number of learners. We're taught subjects due to the political economy of making these subjects take a very long time, and rewarding the specialty that might have been the career choice of the person teaching it."

'''Tom:''' "So what teaching method would optimize for the greatest number of learners?"

'''Eric:''' "Well, first of all, differential diagnosis, like, are you a visual learner or are you an auditory learner?"

'''Tom:''' "And we now segment them out."

'''Eric:''' "Right, and, you know, you start to understand—you present several different styles, you know let's do some A/B Testing—like, you go to your optometrist: Is this better like this? Or like this? Right, and so you start to understand somebody's learning style and learning profile."
