We'd love to hear how others are studying coaching in real-world settings. What methods are you using? What moments have surprised you? Let's talk skill learning in the wild👇

Andreas Roepstorff (@aroepstorff) sharing with us his novel work on 'Play and Predictions' esp. how joy, the (physical) sharing of perspectives, uncertainty, and joint meaning-making enable states of playfulness and play. All together inspiring and fun. #MMII #MQ

Yay @Kimsorassi! Great, rare recognition, for 5% of PhDs awarded, with extraordinary detailed praise and engagement from three international examiners. How Cognitive Science can integrate skill psychology, field ethnography, philosophy of mind, sport science, martial arts studies
