Active Recall 1. Figure out what you actually know 2. Explain to a friend / family members / a open room 3. Start realising where the gaps in your knowledge are 4. Study them to fill the gaps, rinse and repeat 5 , Start right now and keep it up Cheers mate! Thank you so much for your video, it is meaningful.

[@marm742]

Honestly, I've never been able to study or learn by passively reading a book. My ADHD simply wouldn't allow me the patience or the focus to manage even through one chapter. As a student, I've had to get creative with how I interact with a text, so I think I have actually used some active recall techniques without realizing it in order to just survive in a higher education setting. I will definitely benefit from these techniques in the future!

[@altaltalt]

Same here. I could never do memorisation word for word. So what I do is to really understand the abstract concepts, usually by visualisation, and then explain it using my own words. I think it worked out pretty well for me!

[@joseville]

What techniques have you used? I sometimes start reading and while I'm reading, my mind might drift, and even though I've continued to read the words on the page, my mind was elsewhere and I didn't really think about what I was reading.

[@realityjunky]

I think it's very important to look at the human animal. Our brain anatomy is heavily adapted to learn new things, like how to read. That's not the same as learning through reading, which might be more like a skill that improves with repetition. I think WAY too much emphasis is put on passive learning in education. Humans learn by doing, especially if we can watch someone doing the thing and explaining it to us. This was the method used for a million years of human evolution, right up until we started writing things down just a few thousand years ago. I think you're perfectly normal. 👍

I've been doing the Feynman technique, talking out loud and pretending I am presenting the information I just learned, until my sister called me insane and stupid. Gods, I was never the same. I know I shouldn't let that bother me, but it did bother me. Hearing you share your experience, how you would pretend as if you are in front of the class---pausing to ask "does that make sense?", made me feel that I am not alone and my sister and probably just messing around. Yeah, I'm soft. But I'm working to be tough and learn better so I can be who I want to be.

[@Ankit._Gupta]

You are not alone man, my folks also see me as something weird when I do this, so I just have to ensure my privacy and volume while doing this and now I am so much insecure regarding this that now I don't even do it in front of people who actually are pretty used to seeing it...

What helped me when I was in nursing school is that I would repeatedly draw the anatomical structures, like for example the heart, and then label each section and then repeat to myself what those structures did. My notebook looked like an anatomy textbook with how much drawing I did 😅

This method works very well. For the anecdote, I had once an older colleague who was really friendly but quite an annoyance to many in the company. Every day once he arrived at the office, he would come to someone's desk and start explaining for hours what he did years before, how the technology evolved, etc. I often had a colleague fed up pretexting come to see me for an urgent matter, just to escape from that man. Then, the man would go to another colleague's office and repeat the same again. You might think this that man did not have a very productive day. You would be wrong. He was a renowned expert in his filed, world class. He would recall details such as the dimensions and specifications of some very minor parts, all the clients that used the same design and why, and much more, many years later. Then I realized that he could remember all this because he was actively recollecting his memories every day to tell his stories to all his colleagues.

Awesome. I've realized a few months ago that I've been studying wrong. I was reading, writing down notes, and that was *it*. I went back in my studies to things I've previously covered, tried drawing them and experimenting off the top of my head, and I saw how little I actually knew. I've been going through specific pages, attempting to draw a bunch of it, see how comfortable it is, then move on; making a list of my weak points - and yeah, you're right. I've noticed extremely fast and sudden growth in every single aspect of my art since I've tried learning this way. It feels so fucking satisfying.

This system does work. It’s the only way I passed my college specialty courses. I had a study buddy and we used this method to “teach” and test each other in our empty class room and sonography lab.

I've been studying in a similar manner for years now! I'm currently in vet nursing school and literally none of my classes would make sense if I didn't do this. My partner knows very little about vet medicine (or medicine in general), and teaching him things really helps me to study. This is the most effective method I've ever found.

[@emilyfarfadet9131]

As an Art major who had a focus on anatomy- this is a brilliant take. Art already kind of approaches this technique- but it often stops short of understanding the why and how. I think understanding the same system from different angles is key.

[@enerxiazelementa]

based on my own experience, I think the reason why students read thru A-Z for a test instead of focusing on their weakness is because we tend to lean on "recognition" rather than "recall". And we're anticipating things/parts we missed to learn that might come out in the test since we got so many materials we have to study. So it's like, we rather recognize the topic even tho we don't really understand it rather than being completely clueless. especially since the test usually comes in multiple choices. And also, we wouldn't know what questions would come out in the test so it's risky to only deepen our knowledge on one or two particular parts. We want to anticipate the questions rather than gambling on investing in something we're not sure would come out on the test or not (or maybe just 1 or 2 questions).

[@SigridStorjern]

Exactly!!! I'm in my 3rd year of uni and if I had to do this method for EVERYTHING since the beggining, I would need the days to be 48h long at least 🥲. As someone said in another comment, this technique is awesome the moment you want to specialize in something.

How one could foresight his/her future speciality to filter anatomy study so early? Not to mention the doctors (specialists) that become professors of basic sciences (anatomy/histology/pathology/physiology/etc) in medical schools...

[@Phronesis7]

Fiiiinally makes sense why I loved “teaching” and drawing so much as a child and why my academic performance went down after I stopped engaging in those personal forms of play. I genuinely love to learn new information and they allowed me to engage in and share the information!

[@Hi_Im_Akward]

This explains why writing essays was so much more helpful for me to absorbed the information than anything else. Because you have to learn about the material and put it in your own words and explain it to the reader.

I also unconsciously used the active recalling method in 9th grade. When I unintentionally stopped using it in 10th garde, I started thinking that I was going dumb but in reality I wasn't aware of it.

[@realityjunky]

The nice thing about the way we name anatomical structures is that, in general, the name is a little description of where the structure is and where it goes, like a little roadmap. Lots of directional details, position details. This really makes it easier when you get into comparative anatomy between humans and other vertebrates. Love your channel!

[@MadMonk67]

I stumbled across this method in a prior career in sales. I had a mentor who taught me that if you know your product - really know it inside and out - you will be a more confident and capable salesperson and that will make the customer more confident that you know what you're talking about as well as more confident in the product. He would have me pitch our various products to him (and our larger sales group as well) while he and they played the part of the customer. They asked key questions that I quickly learned were gaps in my knowledge. Learning the products better and not just memorizing aspects of them was a huge boost to my confidence when I was in front of an actual customer and made my career in sales better and more enjoyable.

I've been doing this and I didn't know it was actually a technique. As a perfectionist (I have ADHD) I like to know every details even when I'm studying something I like to know and understand every detail (even the ones I don't need to know for my exams, etc). The only problem with this is if I don't understand something I get obsessed and stuck until I understand it, so I spend a lot of time trying to fully understand things and don't have the time to study the total amount of things I need to know. As someone who's starting to study sectional anatomy, knowing the anatomy itself is quite a lot of hard work and time consuming and when you have a deadline, it gets frustrating. Just have to go babysteps. Thanks for the video, it really helps a lot of people who don't use this technique

[@bomaite1]

My wife's uncle was a doctor, and he told me once that he had great difficulty learning. So he came up with a method that worked for him. During the day, he would go to lectures and view demonstrations. He took notes as best as he could, but it was always sketchy. So after supper he would get a pot of coffee and go upstairs to a quiet place, take out his notes for the day, and write everything out longhand in full sentences. This seems very much like what you are doing. The fact that you have to reformulate the thought makes you realize what you don't know or understand, and makes you fill in the gaps. And the act of recalling this after a short pause helps tremendously to transfer that knowledge into long-term memory. It was, however, a tremendous drag on his social life, and he burned through a lot of pens.

“If you can’t tell me about tongue, you should not have moved onto esophagus” Counterpoint: start by learning big picture eg parts of GI tract, then go back through info filling in some details for each part, etc. Easier to learn details after having big picture.

[@DrDaab]

This is an absolutely terrific video. The advice is valuable, and makes terrific sense, with everything we know about Cognition and Learning. It also shows how simply memorizing something is far less useful than actually understanding something. This is why I always believed that trivia games are dumb. If you can teach something effectively, then you actually understand something well.

[@szariq7338]

What I can suggest (despite still barely 1 month into anatomy) is that you don't need to memorize every single piece of information. On example my group is having soon their test about upper limb and what makes us especially mad is the forearm muscles. So instead of remembering every single thing about them (name, location, connections, functions, blood supply and nervation) I usually just try to remember the name and an image of where it is located. With that sorted I can sense rather accurately, what stuff can it be connected to, what nervates, supplies and drains it (based on general location of nerves and blood vessels) and what does it do (based on which movement will cause it to become shorter).

[@KizzleTheKonqueror]

Bruhhhhh... yessssss. Sometimes I've "rehearsed" discussions or arguments or some sort of conflict conversation by myself in the car or home alone to get ideas of how to approach issues or to imagine being questioned or how to better approach and discuss things.

I did that for all the ligaments, muscles, bones, organs etc. and started to learn twice as fast as when I just wrote it again and again and again on a nice sheet of paper.

When i was a student i used 3 techniques for smart studying, i used the pomodoro technique without knowing: the first 1.was understanding what i was reading for about 25 min. In this phase i would underligne the main ideas, and doing schemes/writing and developing questions for later . 2. After the 5 min of pause i would exercice and recall what i've understood with exercices or trying to explain out loud for 25 min. 3. After that i would recall for another 25 min if needed or else i would just start the process again. It seems slow, but its not in the longrun, because it allows your brain to learn and use, and when you learn its harder to forget. I also loved studying in group for the recall part or for someone explain again what i haven't understood and also exercise the memory. Active studying is much better than passive studying. When you are engaged you learn and memorize faster.

I've experienced the benefits of active recall first-hand when I was browsing the material I've covered in a previous study session (I'm not a med student btw). There was a process that I first though I understood, but in the back of my mind I wasn't exactly sure I knew, so I was battling with myself if I should just skip it or test myself by trying to explain the material to myself in order to check my understanding. It turned out that I didn't know it as well as I thought I did. After a couple of attempts, I can now safely say that I DO know that process and can explain it to someone else! :) It was such a good feeling.

Love this! I've always been interested in medical knowledge of any sort. What I learned from this will help in my substitute teaching.

What a way for a teacher to give his pupils a pep talk! I love this channel! 🤩

I'm not a student of anatomy, but I'm rather glad I found this channel.

Very helpful! I had a similar experience teaching for the first time in-person. So different than teaching online. I'll practice more lectures now, thanks for the tips!

Oml I just realised that’s what my highschool bio teacher made us do. She would get random people to stand up and answer a question related to the topic every lesson which really helped. Best teacher 10/10

Wow I didn't realize that. I would do that all the time, especially at work. I would look into things I don't know and get a better understanding.

Used similar methods when I was studying in college many moons ago. Great video thankyou 🙏🏻
