Name Medium Gets to deep stuff?[note 1] Focus on explanation vs creating/doing? Focus on analyzing explanations? Totally new stuff, or just "do more of the same, but faster and with more polish"?
Generic pedagogy, say "good" math books like Tao, Axler, Spivak Text Yes (but it's very difficult work!) Explanation No same old
Tools for thought The point is to create new mediums! Yes? Creating/doing Yes Totally new stuff!
Research distillation[1] Mostly text, with some interactive widgets Kinda (aspirational, but most online essays are still not so deep) Explanation No, or at least not in public faster/more polish
Explorable explanations Interactive widgets Not really Explanation No mix of both
3Blue1Brown Non-interactive video with visualizations No Explanation No mix of both
Khan Academy Tutor-like videos and text Explanation Kinda, but it only targets "easy" topics No just cover all the high school topics
Explanation science Mostly text? Yes (aspirational) Explanation Yes Totally new stuff!

Notes

  1. Is the material comprehensive, and can it be used as a standalone resource? Or is it more of an auxiliary thing to make the topic more entertaining? Does the thing have exercises that really deepen understanding? Does it take desirable difficulties into account?
