I'll take a shot at answering what's the best learning technique based on the content from both your channels: study the material with an emphasis on good encoding (apply/evaluate/analyze), but without taking notes, just on your head; couple hours later do a free recall with pen and paper; actually get a good night's sleep; do another free recall the next day. Also, don't binge/cram one subject. Well, maybe not the *best* technique, but what to me seems the simplest and most important. Thanks for the videos, both of you!

[@Krish-10]

37:10 is where the real learning argument starts!! (Just ignore the company part from 48:01 to 55:47): Encoding vs Retrieval doesn't really matter; it's about desirable difficulties [= spaced practice, interleaved practice, contextual variation, testing; all these share the commonality of the process of retrieval (bringing info from ltm to stm & then to working memory)]. Thus higher-order-retrieval-skills (effective ways of testing the skills) transforms into deliberate practice- higher order thinking/learning, applying ideas to new contexts/context variation, associating info, synthesizing concepts, comparing concepts, (re)organizing concepts, applying concepts to solve problems, etc.

And it amazes me to hear that what's really important, is to find teachers and mentors who dive deeply into their research and fundamentals, but they also criticize and can come up with a practical solution that might work (even though there's no research or some form of a proof that it's completely correct, which is kind of stubborn to look for something like that) Looking forward for more collaborations!

Great video. Re speed reading: for law, high speed skimming is essential, as you might have to scan through thousands of pages of documents a day and quickly decide what is relevant to read more closely. Often there are not contents pages to help you identify the structure - you have to pick it up from scanning for key words, focusing on topic sentences etc. You’re not trying to absorb everything, you’re trying to control your absorption rate so it’s not too much and not too little. I’d be interested in your thoughts on the best way to teach and develop that skill.

Justin’s point about academic research at the 10 minute mark is just what I’ve been thinking about lately. Commentary on academic research needs to be continually validated with reference to other research, which is referencing other research. Hardly anyone goes at something from a new angle, and if they dare to, they usually get shot straight down with either the argument the guys were talking about or simply the assertion that they’re some type of kook or fringe, conspiracy theorist. Just think about how the medical fraternity jumped on recent ‘preventative interventions’ that are only now having their actual research results and subsequent dangers fully exposed to the wider public. Fantastic to actually hear two knowledgable academics discussing things they understand openly.

[@darkprince2490]

have you ever been in academia. it is a soap opera of betrayal, lies, and abuse. 95% of "academic research" into the "cognitive sciences" are plagiarized insights from the mundane and cross cultural sources like buddhism. they're probably even a few "academics" trolling the comment section here looking for their latest "discovery"/

[@avinsxd]

Dropping a note I made while watching this video: Ques are something that can be associated with a subject to make a forced retrieval of it from memory. If you wish to actually contain the information you try to encode it's best to completely ignore ques. They are making that you are not learning the subject, you are learning ques around it to retrieve it when met with said ques later. *It makes it so you can't retrieve information by itself and have to rely on ques for it* Using ques for retrieval is best when you do it not for a subject, but a group of them. Using it for individual subjects makes that you won't remember them in the first place, but using it for a group makes it so you can tag them closer to your memory space you are in.

Re pattern recognition at 36:25 I think this is what Richard Feynman classified as people’s knowledge being “fragile”. IIRC, in his book, “Surely You’re Joking Mr. Feynman” he writes about something along the lines of changing the form of a math question to his fellow students when he was a student himself and people not even realizing that they had just learned about this. Feynman also writes about meeting a former colleague of Einstein and asking him something related to what that person was working on but within another domain and the former colleague really struggling to figure out the answer to something that should have been easy to him asked in a different way.

Hi Justin and Benjamin. It appears to me that a lot of work has gone into research techniques to improve memory without addressing the issue of why we forget information in the first place. It seems that it's accepted that forgetting is a natural process our brain does to protect itself, but is this really true? I've been researching and experimenting with emotions and the ways they affect our mental and physical health for 14 years. What I've recently discovered is that using some of your retrieval techniques has not only helped me improve my ability to retrieve information I WANT to remember, but it has also brought back memories I would much rather forget. This is because the memories I'd rather forget also have emotions attached to them that I wasn't equipped to deal with at the time of the event. Now that I'm in a position to handle these painful and unpleasant emotions effectively, the memory becomes just another memory without an emotion attached to it. The overall result I am finding is that my memory is beginning to improve (after many years of it deteriorating). I am now beginning to believe that memory is not a selective function of the brain. If we choose to forget things that we believe we can't deal with, then we will inhibit our ability to remember things that we want to hold on to. I am really looking forward to learning more of your strategies and experimenting with them in regard to memory as I find it a fascinating subject. Thanks

This is so true I went though this in my dissertation. I had one professor and she wanted citation for everything. I understand learning the basics but in Academia there is so much of the idea "everyone in academia does this, it has always been done like this." Just like the idea of types of learners , it continues to be passed down. I do agreed there is a lot of misleading. Personally, I have struggled so much with studying and now going through iCanStudy it pains me so see other people suffering and perhaps even abandoning their studies because learning is so exhausting because of the poor techniques.

[@CatherineIves]

This video is brilliant. I'm doing a bridging / preparation course to get into a bachelor's degree. In the academic English unit they teach us to read the abstract to get the main idea of the article and to see if it's relevant. Also, they tell us to don't bother reading the methodology part of a journal as we're not conducting our own research. There is a high importance placed on referencing, but also we're not taught how to judge good research it's like if it's peer reviewed and current then that's good enough. I remember asking how do we know if there isn't confirmation bias in the peer review process and they say no there isn't and not to worry about that. Unless you become a researcher yourself how do you learn these things?

[@DannyHatcherTech]

Thoughts while watching: Science communication is complex - linear videos are inherently decontextualized. Research and practice are different things - I agree (research has its own problem - p hacking comes to mind) The research problem is massive, not just in educational science Grappling the research issues is a skill we should push as science communicators Retraction watch is great - that is where synthesis as a skill is something the public should be aware of You elude to the contention of working memory - I would have liked you to expand Spaced repetition comes from the original videos about it from Ali - he popularized active recall instead of retrieval practice etc YES be specific with language!!! The memory conversation is interesting - I was expecting the free energy principle to be brought in with predictions 🤷‍♂ Learning app argument - 100% agree! I have seen that paper cited a lot - most add their own interpretations tho My question - what is practice that you do that isn't retrieval practice? Great conversation. Would be good to get a podcast going with educational scientists - I am not aware of one that is specific to this sort of stuff. The conversations I listen to are fairly niche.

[@TickleMeTimbers]

the free energy principle in neuroscience and positing the brain as a prediction system are the biggest scams since mirror neurons. the free energy principle and entropy are of little explanatory use, the brain is an action system not a prediction machine, and mirror neurons, well, let's just say do a literature search on mirror neurons and see what comes up.

At 10:00~ I completely agree with your evaluation of how a small number of researches shape other less “successful” who seek to add to the relevant science on the same topically area. Unfortunately, researching funding, capitalism (market mechanisms) and policy decisions are the most obvious contributing factors for this IMO. Not necessarily analogous, but if you look at the tech pivot from blockchain to AI, you would have thought AI was nescient technology, perhaps even within the context of large language models (LLM). Additionally, your identification of the need of liaisons is really critical in a world with silos of information and the messiness of collaboration. The liaison can have a shared understanding of a common nomenclature.
