Learning as-you-do-it is more efficient and effective than classrooms or textbook reading.
Could academic subjects remodel themselves on meditation apps, asks?

I'm of course very familiar with Brilliant, but I don't quite see how it shares these properties of guided meditation apps—could you help me out? Is the idea that people show up to "have fun with math" and end up engaging incidentally with instructional material?
I’d say that’s one way to use it, not sure if it’s common.
It certainly is “I’m going to go Do Math”, like math circles or math clubs.
You’re right, Andy, this is not what school math typically is. (But maybe problem-based-learning advocates want to make it that?)

A math club teacher/coach might curate a years material of “doing math” that shares a theme or returns to an idea, like your meditation app?
