Dear Artem, well done. Since your brilliant scientific approach, I would suggest to list the sources of which your conclusions are based on, in the video description (assays, articles, books) and not just in the videoitself. It is a 'boring' praxis but you know, they can be extremely useful to your subscrivers for further insights and researches as well as to solidtly support your divulgative work. I have noticed that some of your videos have such references in the video description, so keep going with it, please. Best wishes from Italy. D.
I've been doing interleaving without even knowing it. I intuitively felt like it boosted my understanding of a subject, but I had no idea what it was actually called! This video is amazing, thank you!
Wow I guess Rudin knew about interleaving back when he wrote his analysis textbooks cuz its always a frantic "what do I do now" upon picking an exercise from the end of the chapter.
Similar situation for me, often I find it beneficial to frequently swap between subjects, it helps keep the brain busy & focus it, I actually find I can be more productive than some of my mates using this method despite having adhd. whilst individually it can be quite slow on a singular subject, as a whole I learn a lot from a lot of different topics, it helps that I have many hobbies and passions & enjoy learning weird bits & bobs. Like I'll read 3 completely unrelated books at the same time, so even though I'm much slower to finish 1 book compared to others, I can read 3 books way before they do! Works for me, hopefully you might be able to get some use out of it as well! also the other cool benefit is when you find strange & unexpected crossovers between subjects, that's always very exciting
Listen to your body. I absorb information better when I allow my attentional focus to lead the way. If you really cannot focus on a particular thing, return to it another time, or consider backtracking in case you're not understanding properly 😊
Artem, excellent presentation. I wonder if the reason interleaving performs better than back to back sequencing of learning is because different populations of neurons are activated the more distant and time one learning session is from another, as you covered in another video of yours. Thus having greater diversity in recruiting different neural assemblies should be able and plausibly be useful for better and more strongly grounding and connecting new information into the neural grid. Just an idea in case it helps...
You know, what if interleaving does better like a neural network sometimes does better on a test set when the training and test set is split randomly. It's case specific, but in terms of generalization tasks, maybe it's a similar concept.
Que idioma hablas realmente? Preferiría que hablaras en tu idioma y pusieras subtítulos en inglés (o español je). Estoy un poco agotado del autoproclamado esperanto.
Using language this way is itself an example of the “interleave” effect 💁♀️. And in many cultures and communities, there’s nothing so extreme in this language. But mainly, I place high value on creators being true to who they are.
