An important learning from this presentaion... Whenever you do a presentation ALWAYS read the slide text out loud immediately, otherwise your audience will start reading the slide and stop listening to you speak. After I learned this, my presentations have gone so much better. And I suddenly understand why I at some talks and presentations have a hard time following the speech. A little tip.
Tacit knowledge example for me... In my life as a computer administrator, I would ALWAYS reboot a computer system at least twice after installing a program, because I had the tacit knowledge that if I didn't do this ritual... something weird or bad would happen later, sometimes much later, and would be hard to figure out. Thanks for teaching me this powerful concept.
The truth is that most teachers and the education system generally rely more on 'tacit' knowledge than on imparting comprehensive explicit knowledge to their students. This is because teachers often depend on their own 'tacit' knowledge and struggle to articulate this knowledge explicitly. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the teaching of grammar and mathematics.
10:15 What about wind resistance? If I stuck my head out of the window of a moving car then I would be able to feel the air colliding with my head and pushing against it. Wouldn't that air resistance slow down the ball enough that it fall behind the car?
Good teachers already do this (don't just teach facts - intrigue, challenge and create experiences for students). Their gut feeling (tacit knowledge), along with some experience in creating products in the real world, tell them this. Steve Jobs once said that young entrepreneurs should be attracted into teaching, I agree, they would do all of the above automatically.
Very dangerous talk. Arguing in favor of tacit knowledge and not in favor of the common link of fact and stance/ disposition/ ethos :), it can be easy to overlook how these two mutually shape our way of thought. Richard Brock mentions psychology and philosophy which are important factors to be considered. Sharing ones thoughts in a proper manner is a means of combining factual knowledge with "instict" (as it was refered to, during the speech) and vice versa. Indeed there has to be a revolution in how we proceed to aquire and implement knowledge in everyday life and an important factor might be communication with proper thymos (as described in the beginning of Peter Sloterdijks book - Zorn und Zeit). There has to be more public room fot this debate, I claim.

excellent
thank you for this great contribution
Now that is the implicit knowledge converted to explicit knowledge.
Good talk....tacit knowledge is so part of being an artist....sculptor...words just don't express the knowledge you acquire with every tool mark.
This is so clearly recognisable in everyday life and in one's own experiences. A great talk, thanks!
Paused the video at the coin example, had insight when I discovered the solution. Took me 1 minute. Wow

i really don't mean any offence . but can't your experience more precisely categorize as superstition ???
@@4rfghu89oikjhgre3sdf Sure, it could be superstition, or deep knowledge. To be sure, would require double blinded studies taking years of time.

great presentation, Dr Richard Brock, thank you
Not a very complimentary camera angle at 1:20
exactly
TheMrEM4N its creative
:D
You should talk to Derrick, the guy from the Veritasium channel.
Very informative.. thank you
A great talk!

At the beginning of his talk he includes not taking wind resistance into account in his question :)
When was Tacit knowledge originally defined ?
1958 Michael Polanyi

Steve Jobs wasn't an educator... wasn't a great CEO either, according to the board and early employees.
