Dear fellows - professionals and people like me,

Reading this thread reminds me of how I approached the numerous engineering courses at the university.

In the same way as TGM each course had a steep learning curve with new terminologi and some degree of complexity.

And in the same way as TGM - the fog started to lift as soon as we got some of the terminologi and eqations under the skin.

And in the same way as TGM everything was somehow connected to everything else.

And in the same way as with TGM - eventually we vere able to understand most of the textbook.

But an understanding based on reading just wasn't enough. It was something very different to apply the stuff in actual problem solving. Working with solving "tasks" (I don't remember the proper english word for it) was for me the only way to truly understand advanced mathematical and technological topics. The answers to the exams were never in the textbook. The tools necessary to provide an answer was. But the hard part was learning to apply the toolkit!

The TGM seems to be an exellent toolkit. I've read every page more than once, and I understand most of the sentences in the book. I've never studied a book where every sentence, every word is written with such care and thoroughness as this one. The book just keeps growing on me! But just reading and reflecting isn't enough preparation for real world application!

I think some of us in this exellent forum need som real problems to chew on- followed by "correct" answers to benchmark against. So I kindly ask the LBG staff to consider a "weekly case" where a video of someone doing something in their stroke is accompanied by some questions for us to chew on - and you guys tells us how you proceeded with the lesson(s) or analysis - and the result (if any). Something like this would be very interesting stuff and great material for several new interesting discussions.

How about an "e-learning forum"
