Fads Debunked

I’ve lost count of all the faddish theories of yesteryear, now thoroughly debunked, yet to which proponents still cleave.

Examples:
• Myers-Briggs (MBTI)
• Growth Mindset
• The Agile software development approach
• Learning Styles
• The 10,000 hour rule
• The Pygmalion effect
• The Hawthorne Effect (?)
• The left brain/right brain myth
• The myth of multitasking being OK
• Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)
• Jim Collins – Good to Great / Build to Last (?)
• The Stanford Prison Experiment (?)
• The Milgram Experiment (?)
• Stockholm Syndrome (?)
• The Cone of Learning / The Learning Pyramid
…and so on.
