How do other autodidacts integrate into academia I have to reread myself everything unless the teacher is captivating to me on the topic which is rare captions help me
I always viewed going to university as like going to see a film. You pay your money, watch the film (lecture), discuss the film after (seminar), then go home. You then have to go and learn yourself. The tutor ultimately can only introduce you, the rest is up to you. Thus, there shouldn’t really be any ‘integration’. At least this is on the assumption I’ve interpreted your comment correctly:)

I teach at a college. I design classtime this way: students do the reading ahead of time; in class they are part of a small cohort; I give them prompts that they process as a cohort; we come back together & they share their conclusions with the class; I add context, introduce new ideas, or course-correct based on what they say. There's more to it, but this is the backbone of how we use classtime, because ... @EVDHmn@sociology@academicchatter@academicsunite

... the thing that's unique about classtime, the thing that can happen there that can't happen anywhere else, is interaction with peers and mentor. So I focus more on using interaction to make sense and meaning of the material in class than I do on teacher-to-class content delivery @EVDHmn@sociology@academicchatter@academicsunite

Ahh I would rather get the materials watch lecture remote reading list etc, then go in and talk about parts I have questions about…it drove me crazy in traditional learning.
No problems taking tests typically after I learn. I think the groups help it’s just harder being autistic/adhd. Esp as I get older it bothers me more. Learning is my favorite past time tbh… I was told I have learned how to learn but I still need guidance
