​@@Midnight_9595Do inquiry based learning. Ask what answers to questions you want from the book. Map out ur previous knowledge. And then proceed to make a broad mind map after chunking the broad concepts of the book. Then compare the broader concepts or try to find links between them. During this entire process keep writing questions about the concepts that pop up in ur head. Once you do that, try reading through the chapters and answering the questions. Keep questioning and critically analysing everything the writer says in ur mind. Don't accept everything as fact. Question everything

learn a simple programming language like python, learn the basics & data structures and algorithms (dont dive in too deep yet, just explore the vast landscape n know what things they are), then start solving leetcode / competitive programming. At the beginning it will be very frustrating n daunting, but if kept consistent..voila! You would be master at problem solving and get a job as well 😮

You have a good point about music, and it explains why I tend to need it so much. It's a very double-edged sword; it uses up cognitive resources that could go to thinking, but it also uses up cognitive resources that would otherwise go towards my attention latching onto other things. Having ADHD makes getting flow states consistent extremely difficult.

This was the best video I watched of yours by far. It was concise and summarized multiple techniques and how to use them. I think another great video would be a step by step how exactly to study depending on the major or class type. I’m an engineering student and the best way to study for me is not necessarily the best for a med student. You give a lot of helpful tips but sometimes they’re overwhelming when trying to figure out which ones to use specifically and at what times.

mindmaps literally boosted my efficiency to the next level .It had helped me to save much more time, by not writing dozen pages of useless linear notes which i end up forgetting after few weeks and instead of it processing content in my mind by forming relations and connections and its more convinient to recall and revise. i wonder why school teachers not teaches stuff like these and focus more on mugging up the bookish data

Nonetheless, thank you for always sharing your study advice with the community!

I immediately subscribed while watching another video when you mentioned negative proof (success bias) and the one on encoding was a light bulb moment because in school when I used to be a good student it was something I ended up doing without realising / trying - while listening to a lecture my mind had enough time to wander and because it was pre-smartphone, social media era the wandering was predicting the next point or analysing and relating the points made to earlier learned stuff

I think a video on how to effectively learn procedural knowledge would be incredibly helpful, which would somewhat coincide with learning critical thinking and problem solving as Krish-10 has also mentioned below. I am currently learning Information Technology and it seems one of the most useful real world skills to have is knowing how to critically think and problem solve in terms of troubleshooting any issues that may arise. I have been utilizing mental models and thinking frameworks such as the Ishikawa/Fishbone Diagram to serve as a schema to chunk, in hopes of finding the relationship between your learning methods and real world or procedural application. I also wanted to say that your methods have helped me dramatically improve my learning as a whole so thank you for that! Looking forward to any and all your videos on leading a more productive life. Cheers! 👍

I see how I've become super reliant on having some background video in my life regardless of what I'm doing, not just studying be even other parts of life like walks, eating and preparing food, workouts, and one of the worst for me being sleep. It made sense when neighboring roommates would stay up super late and night and when I'm trying to work on something I can't focus when there's always some noise that I have to block out but end up being super annoyed and frustrated. I believe having just white/brown/pink noise or just waterfalls without any breaks or noticable loops can help to simulate like when there is actually no noise and your brain fills in that sound, rather than hearing all my roommates and everything. But even this I've become reliant on as when I'm not studying I've become so annoyed of any small noises or high pitched noises. It's like my ears are just super sensitive to everything around me and I keep darting between that noise everywhere. I think meditation and endurance without any headphones helps to naturally drown out things and just adapt, but the frustration and lack of focus still exists. Libraries sometimes help or just change in environment.

Technique Modification: Practice papers are improved by focusing on knowledge gaps and creating personalized answer sheets, making it a highly effective technique. Flow State Optimization: Enhancing the Pomodoro technique by adjusting break times based on personal flow states can make it more efficient, though its effectiveness still depends on the study methods used during flow. Enhanced Recall: Active recall can be significantly improved by varying the recall methods to cover different types of knowledge and ensuring a deeper understanding. Pre-study Importance: Pre-studying by creating a scaffold of key concepts and their connections boosts understanding, and is crucial for effective learning. Mind Mapping Advantage: Mind maps are highly effective due to their alignment with higher-order thinking and deep processing, making them an excellent study tool. (AI summary tool)

What do you think of stress testing things learned (what tier?). For example, mental experiments of pushing ideas to its most outrageous applications to identify incorrect applications/assumptions/flaws. By understanding why something is wrong, you gain confidence in what is right....until the next piece of knowledge breaks everything again and you need to rebuild it back up.

Hey Justin, I recently found out that some people can't imagine images (Aphantasia). And that some people doesn't have inner monologue/s aswell. I've wondered why is that the case and through examining myself, I found out that I can imagine images, touch, and sound with high level of clarity as long as I've experienced them in the past. I asked my brother and friends about imagining touch or sound and they seem to be not capable of doing it or can only do it but with less clarity. The simulation of those senses allows me to better recall information associated with the use of those senses. How does this affect learning?

Hi Dr. Sung, I recently discovered your channel and immediately found interesting and challenging the concepts you talk about. I'd like to ask for a clarification: mind mapping is based on the non linear functionality of the brain, and must represent the information's organization in our head. The construction of this global picture though is done through a series of deliberate linear thinking processes aimed to branch, correlate and reorganize the information, right? Do you intuitively picture the relations and organization all at once in your head, or do the mind map assolve that role? The fact that the mind map is constructed step by step would suggest the second option. Thanks for all the good information you're putting out there!

Nope it's just analysis and structure not really "mapping" anything other than what you currently know or learnt and yes it's step by step You can't connect anything "intuitively" without enough information so what happens is that you just group things together for whatever reason and you do it at first to basically start with something rather than nothing then change things as you learn more to make the process more engaging/smoother for the brain it's just for efficiency and clarity nothing crazy basically a basic engineering method.

you "hated" on music, so i got 2 questions: 1) what about low profile beats from apps like endel etc 2) if its bad for concentration, why is there music in your videos, for example while you are talking about music in this video. I really like your videos and am grateful for your input, but i personally would be very happy if the music were more quiet or completely cut out :)

"I can't get my head around these study methods. For example, if I want to learn about probability, should I skip the video lessons and readings and go straight to the practice questions? How can I answer the questions if I have never studied this subject before? Shouldn't I watch a lecture on the topic first and then attempt the practice questions?"

Hi Dr Sung. Thank you for taking the time to teach us this for free. Are you bilingual? So im studying islamic studies (in arabic) and i realised explaining to myself any lesson in english has been very helpful. Its like testing myself whether i understood it or not. Also sometimes if i dont understand an arabic word, translating it into english brings all the connotations related to that word to mind and i find this helps w understamding and memory. Also crossing cultures and rooot words. It has been so interesting and helping. I def think it is a blessing to know more than 1 language. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

@@SarawithnH You're basically studying it in the English language at least mentally-wise which will first limit your understanding and knowledge of the text and second Arabic is a much better language than English especially for originally Arabic texts Don't use English as a shortcut. do it completely in Arabic and try to do it in increasing complexity and then in the end when you become proficient simply translate to English for communication reasons not understanding This channel is mostly misguiding so be very careful since actual learning is always long-term and you won't notice early on how bad these "strats" on social media can affect your mind or life.

Welp, as someone who listens to music a lot to get in the mood for studying (Starcraft Broodwar Terran OST is goated), that kinda hit a nerve. However it does make sense to me, because when I really focus, I turn it off since it starts to feel like a distraction. Guess I'll look into different types of white noise. Really happy you took the time to explain in detail this thing in particular, because I think it translates to other areas of life in my case at least. Great stuff! ❤

SC is incredibely goated. Music is pretty good to get you into the mood screw focus it doesn't matter what matters is the time you spent reading and solving things and music is only a problem when you're unable to focus or learn at all A distraction is necessary to do the repetitive work and only turn it off when you get very used to the material and want to get better at it I listen to rap and heavy metal to get me into something new then turn it off when I'm familliar with it like 2-3 hours in Anyway this channel sucks and so does lulu.

Hi, Justin! I have recently started watching your videos. I am facing some problems in non linear note takings aka mindmap. So I try to relate different concepts in a chapter through mindmaps. But the thing is, sometimes I fail to find relations between a concept/topic with another concepts. How do I fix this?
@nihsumi
@nihsumi 7 ай бұрын
MM are typically used in a top down style. So for a book you can have the central idea being the name of the book and then each branch from there could either be a Chapter name or each branch could be one of the main concepts the book is teaching. If you are using the Chapter name as a MM branch then you may have different concepts under the Chapter that are not linked to each other but they are linked back to the Chapter name in which the author thought they belonged together. If you want to remember relationships between your MM links then you want to create a concept map. I think they can be vastly superior to MM.

I find that listening to a videogame soundtrack (specifically endless space soundtrack) helps me keep "random thoughts" or idk what to call them out of my head. I have ADD so I suppose the random thoughts as I call them are more frequent than for me than others. I can and do concentrate very well on subjects that I'm interested in, but even with them I find the background music helpful. I suppose it's designed to be in the background so do you feel like it's a good thing or should I try to control the 'oh look, a squirrel' thoughts in some other way? I feel like the music "fills" the space where the random thoughts develop to use very unprofessional terms :D but that's the best way I can explain it.

For learning a new language. If mnemonics aren’t effective for info you’re going to need to manipulate and use, how would you recommend that I go about it? (I’m learning Mandarin which means I need to memorize lots of characters)
@roberttallafer2299
@roberttallafer2299 7 ай бұрын
You will need to memorize characters when it comes to Chinese, there's no way around that. Chinese characters are ideographs with parts that sort of represent the meaning of the word. So without being able to recognize the characters and their parts you wouldnt be able to read and interpret. For becoming able to understand and speak the language is where 'manipulating and use' come into play. To manipulate the language you need to first deeply understand it. To deeply understand you do listening and reading activities. You want to think critically while doing these activities trying to deeply understand the story. Try think how each event inthe story is interrelated, just like you would read a story in your native language, but harder because of all the unknown words. To make it easier do i+1 of Stephen Crashen's input hypothesis which is basically ~80% known/20% unknown words. But the point is just consume material with a greater amount of known words. It provides more/better context to understand the new words. If you want to avoid/reduce memorizing you can focus only on the speaking part and rely on conversation to learn. But you can only pull this off if you have the circumstances that allow you to converse a lot in your target language. You probably would want to learn to read anyway.

There are a few practical tips that I think embody and improve on what Justin says about practice papers:- 1) Determining the ratio of the typology of questions- Essentially, try to do more of HOTS type of questions, but in case the subject or the way you are tested on the material involves a lot of isolated fact recall, tune the ratio accordingly ( but the HOTS are still a must). 2) Subjective v/s Objective QnAs- If you have access to subjective questions, prioritise them over objective ones. This is not to say that you leave out mcqs, it's important to cover all types of qnas but surely get your hands on subjective ones. Especially complex ones because they offer more room for complex problem solving without any cue whatsoever, increasing the active recall aspect. Delayed Review - essential reevaluating or predicting wether your answers hit the mark before checking rye answer key ( say, by using different colour pens for ticking or crossing answers ). Moreover, also highlight answers you feel you weren't confident with and made a wild guess on.
