Sounds like making a concept map first by grouping all the concepts, procedures and facts. Then seeing how it relates to eachother and then you can jump into mastering it per topic. I think usually the topic to start with jumping in, is the topic you're interested in or curious about the most. Since the best way to learn is the way you enjoy most, at least for me having my curiousity satisfied makes me never forget it.
If you're learning a new subject, you do not want to just throw together all the keywords into a concept map and only then try to organize it. This is exactly what he was advocating against in this video. What you really want to do is to organize the info immediately after acquiring it. Like Justin said, you have less than a minute to do this.
@@jeongsungmin2023 its true what you said and dont you think its also true that interest is also a factor. Its aleast the like the first step not the walk or running but the first step of even pursuing to go that direction.
this works for people who think in patterns but for people who think in information just absorb it all and organize it later because you literally will be able to remember it
I think that is a rare subset. Humans naturally organize information into groups and clusters. So naturally almost everyone (I'll give to say maybe there are individuals who dont) will benefit from patterns. Only problem is adjusting when your model of the clusters is faulty
If you literally memorize isolated bits of information after seeing it a few times without thinking that much about it, then you just have incredibly exceptional memory. Trust me, most people cannot ever dream of doing that.
@@goldencookie5456 I know plenty of people with memories like an elephant. The stories they tell are so detailed it blows my mind. There really are people with good memories out there. I work with them every day as a chef.
@@potapotapotapotapotapota But how do you know what causes them to have such exceptional memories? You can't see what goes on inside their brains. Is it because they can memorize information better that others or is it they are better at thinking deeply about the info and organising it?
First session (30 min): Figure out the connections between all concepts and sort it out through either sequential and/or relational (grouping) ordering. Second session: Read, understand, and think of HOW and WHEN to apply the information
This is how i first encountered my best and favourite ever channel in RU-vid, you truly did change the way i think after 7 months of this trial ( after binge watching your videos ofc)
I find that writing or typing down acronyms for sequential groups of information help me to memorize and understand concepts, this video further validated that it's an effective learning method. Wasn't sure for a long time already since lots of other learning methods didn't work as well for me.
Gatekeeping knowledge would be if Justin controls what you learn and what you don't learn. I don't think Justin is doing that. He is sharing alternative methods you can use to learn the things you want to learn.
Honestly, guess. Oftentimes you can get pretty close just based on what you know already. Then when you're learning you'll be looking for where you were right and wrong instead of just blindly trying to memorize.
Make groups as you go, say you learned a new word today, what group does it fit in? What tense? Is it a verb or a noun? Would you use it in formal or casual conversation? What is it used for, a greeting, descriptive word, inanimate object?
@@skyissoblue one way I've found out through brute force studying (SAA CO3)lately is to put info into categories according to different options of the same type
Hmm good question. Maybe try looking at the outlines of several chapters/topics to get a quick gist of them - and then see how each one links to the other(s). Just my theory anyway For example, cuz of the presence of chloroplasts, photosynthesis happens, which leads to glucose being made, etc.
Simply, for me it's just overview all over bold points in a chapter. Skimming on any important things, like may be theorems, or just read subunit, or maybe only the summary. Sometimes, I had gotten the entire point of what are discussed there. Then, I write down after classifying them by my prior knowledge before trying problem solving. If I got more fails, I start to read difficult discussions. 😣😖😫😫😫😩 butt isokayy relaxxxx first and take a deep breath to start enjoyable thinking. Fun fact, I just accept many theorems in a chapter in Calculus 2 because all of those are obviously make senses, double integrals maybe, and got 100/100 scores only just read summary and do some problems, until I can do 6 difficult problems. I remember the one of those is polar coordinates related but I also need to review to chapter on Vector and 3D curves equations. Sometimes maths/logical related subjects intuitively make senses for us, so just think of it instead of reading all through, or if it is still difficult just read the theorem and prove it only by intuition (if ur major doesnt even need to improve more, like cs), then just do strategical practice, until at least I can do 3 most difficult problems (like the highest level in those chapters) before really sure to be ready got an A for exams 😂😂
So I have a study method which I think is not very convenient, for anybody who reads this comment, comment what you think about it... So I start by reading about the topic and writing as many notes as possible then after this long process I start my revision which involves asking and answering questions. I think this is lower level thinking because it takes me forever to accomplish phase one but I got so used to it that it's hard to do anything else. Also, studying content on yt is overwhelming me, if you've been in this please help😢
Is this method applicable in engineers field too? Like using stereo net to find stable/unstable planes? Or in advance hydraulics, for saint-venant equations?
But how would arrange and organize the information before learning it and understanding it?? Don't you have to learn the info to know how to organize it??
I believe this is called priming. He has a video example of how he does it practically: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tkkey3ADfCI.html
(I think) it's like identifying the important idea of a group of information. Then identifying the important idea of another group of information. Then, comparing the similarities/differences in the nature of each group. So, say you have 20 boxes of different items. You can read the labels for each, then create larger categories for the boxes, say 10. Then you can create categories for those categories, say 3. But there's tons of ways you can organize information. You could take out the items out of the boxes and make your own labeled boxes. You can stack the boxes next to each other, around each other. Boxes could exist between different categories. Boxes can be of different shapes and sizes, colours, etc. You could have boxes inside boxes. You could have items taped to boxes, etc. After you prime in a way that makes sense to you. Once you learn the details of your topics, you can just stick it into your system of boxes and voila, you remember it for a long time
How can you form groups of concepts which you don't even know about ? it may be possible in humanities subjects, because for example history follows a pattern no matter which time period you study ? the king, the culture, the changes and any major developments within that time period. But when you go into something like fluid mechanics, every sentence is a buzzword, it takes a lot of time to first understand the concept itself, then workout the examples, solve some questions, only then can you group it in ok so, what are the type of applications that I can do here with this knowledge? before knowing the concept itself, you can't do anything.
Fantastic way I follow but the issue here is this works only when u read summaries of the subject to know before hand the boxes to make and then. Fill them
I don’t know what any of this means. Organizing what? Knowledge together? If a lesson on a subject doesn’t intrinsically organize new information with established information then it’s simply isn’t a good lesson.
