Eating my own dogfood - my critique of this video (so meta): Error: I accidentally wrote Edgar Dale's name backwards on my drawing. You will see some very sneaky photoshopping in the article version: thomasjfrank.com/feynman-technique-lpc-method/ Clarification: I wish I would have stated more clearly that you don't necessarily need to film your body or face - the important thing is that you make a video and then watch it later to add a critique. For some topics, it maybe more useful to film your hands drawing out a diagram. Clarification 2: I specifically paste my video at the top of the section in my notes where I've recorded notes about that concept. That way, the accurate information is nearby, and I can quickly review it before watching to prime my brain to catch errors. Question: Is verbally explaining a concept identical to writing it out when it comes to retention? Nope! While we can't say whether one is better than the other, research has found that verbal and written communication utilize different parts of the brain. Citation and further explanation can be found linked in the companion article (linked above). Hope y'all find this one helpful!

"learn by rote". Wow! This remind me of some of my classmates and me when we were in elementary, junior high and senior high school. Now I found a term for that! Also, I'm glad that now I'm actually thinking about stuff relating to self improvement, for me and for everyone around me. Because if I get better, we can benefit from each other instead of being hurt by me.

As a teacher, this is exactly how I plan my lessons. I "rehearse" my lecture as I build the lesson around a PowerPoint, Jamboard and Doc sheet. This ensures I step into the minds of my students, hit all the points of the lesson and that it all flows well into a 20 minute class activity. I practice the lecture performance by physically standing, walking and verbally giving a lecture to myself in my room or office from time to time to test out a new slide, question or activity. This is one aspect of why I love teaching. It helps me not only learn new concepts but also effectively communicate them through teaching these concepts to others and thereby adding value to my own intellect and life in general. Good stuff, Thomas.

Yeah the critique part is super helpful! My main inspiration for doing it was working with my online lifting coach - I've been filming my lifts and watching his critiques of them for about 18 months now. Figured it would work just as well for academic purposes.

Hey @Doctor Azmain I’m starting medical school in september and I’d like to know whether you think that the time consumption this technique comes with would be outweighed by its effectiveness. Med school is all about learning fast, and I’m not sure whether I should use this or not. Since you’ve already graduated I think you’re the perfect person to ask :)

@@nassimlecornet2676 A very good point! To which I'd say you have to be selective and use multimodal learning like Tom says! To consolidate key foundational topics that might be complex (renal physiology comes to mind!), this is perfect. For other topics, make good use of question banks, Anki/Quizlet/your flashcard app of choice, KZfaq videos etc. Because you're right, you simply don't have time to learn everything this way. Hope that helps!! 😊

As an educational science student I really liked this video! The combination of active recall necessary to create your explanation in your video, the self-feedback to correct any mistakes and the use of multimedia (images + text) are all aspects of learning techniques that have a lot of research backing up their effectiveness.I think a lot of people could benefit from trying this approach. Great job!!!

@carbon89 2 жыл бұрын

Great video. I can see the amount of time/effort that you have put into it. One simplified version of this that I use semi-frequently is when I write manuscripts for journal submission. The first draft is usually rough and just sketches over the information that I want to deliver. As I read/critique/revise the subsequent versions of this draft, not only the material improves but my understanding of the material also improves. This is similar for the programmers when they write their code.

Critiquing is an effective way to get better at something, cuz I learn more about what my students are learning by their responses to tests (and my critique of them) and therefore where my own teaching needs improvement.
