How to Become a Better Learner: Learn Like a Jungle Tiger, Deliberate Practice ft. Anders Ericsson

[@jordanbbates]

Just had a zoom call with my volleyball team... doing a JT challenge! (Had them watch the video, we talked about it, and now they are choosing a skill to get better at over the month!) Thanks!

Learning is one of the best skills in the world.

The stressing the system to force change is definitely true. Muscles work EXACTLY that way, and the brain is basically a muscle. The kind of signal you need to give your brain (to drive adaptive change) is basically the same as you need to give your muscles: "You either have to grow to adapt here or else we're going to struggle to survive." The ONLY way to do that is to overload the muscle (the brain, in this case) until it learns this message and makes the necessary adaptations. It's far from easy because it's essentially painful to operate continuously in that zone. Most people will bail from it given half a chance.

This vid only got popular when we had to stay inside and teachers could show it because they can do this in order to get out of this environment. By putting on this video and doing nothing, they become the "zoo tiger"

That is the truth. No reasonably lazy teacher wants to learn technology and give lessons during this time... it's easier to let the students struggle while sitting on a life-long pension plan and good pay for doing next to nothing. I do think that this video is well done for people who want to be good at something but are simply unmotivated/afraid to do so. This video is popular for a reason, and I don't think it is just to bore children to death.

Brother, Go full JT and take this to the next level...I know you know it. You know straight reps is blocking... kinda, sorta, right? Designing strategies for interleaving, spacing and adding contextual interference (Desirable Difficulties, Bjork 2009) into that deliberate practice is even better. The disclaimer is that the learner won't "feel" like they are learning but Ha! that's the counter intuitive part that keeps so many trainers from following the Science instead of their feelings or short term Performance spikes that have a rapid decay. The introspective part is excellent! The Science on the effect of Feedback bandwidth is a good next step and changing the environment for practice/studying as well as Output more/Input less is again a counter intuitive personal favorite. If your target audience is mainly college aged adults, understanding that blocking before exams is best but if you really want to retain information for recall and transfer, well, there's a strategy for that which is solidly empirically supported. Love what you're doing man, keep up the great work and vids. ~M

Mr Ragan...My VB HS Varsity Coach runs only about 6-10 drills. I wonder why he's been so successful. Having back to back state championships multiple times, moving from DII to DI two years ago and in the same year finishing 2nd in state. Then last year finishing 2nd again in DI, but having being ranked #1 for 11 weeks in the whole country. This doesn't seem to follow the JT philosophy. I believe our varsity coach gets his training regiment from John Wooden, who dominated DI basketball for ages with only having a limited amount of drills. Can you shed light on why this phenomenon works?

Amazing bro

[@neoxgammer1692]

Good bro keep it up

[@dikshaenglishacademy6888]

People don't want to learn new things. Because it requires a lot of energy and time.
