Are you learning with AI — or is AI doing the learning for you?
With ChatGPT, students did better on practice problems — but once it was gone, they scored worse than those who'd never had it. What does that mean if you're learning on the job? One story, one idea to try, sources in the description.

Innovation in educational practice
How adults learn through projects and what that means for teaching. Lessons from the Finnish OAMK LABs and from my own classroom. Recorded as part of an open lecture series.

This might help if…
- 01you're torn between a course, a degree or a new field — and can't decide what to commit to, or what to drop.
- 02you study after hours — reading, taking notes, watching — and a week later, little of it has stuck.
- 03you want to know whether what you're learning actually works in your job before sinking a year into it.
- 04work, training, a passion and people all compete for the same 24 hours.
How I handle sources
I sort before I share.
- 01Every claim comes with its source.
- 02I flag what comes from research, what's my own experience, and what's one person's story.
- 03If I've tried it on myself, that's an example — not proof it'll work for you.
- 04When nobody knows, I say “I don’t know.”
Who's behind this
Innovation researcher, powerlifting medallist, amateur artist.
By day, I research innovation and teach — at Poznań University of Economics and Business and as a corporate trainer. Study, research and teaching have taken me to 12 universities in 10 countries. After hours, I lift, draw, take photos and I'm learning to carve wood. Each one is another chance to be a beginner again — and to test how I learn.

Hey, look what I found.
Starting 1 December: every two weeks, one story and one idea to try — about how adults learn alongside work, training and the things they love. Shorter pieces on Instagram in between. I always tell you how I know. (The channel is in Polish.)
