Eating my own dogfood - my critique of this video (so meta):
Error: I accidentally wrote Edgar Dale's name backwards on my drawing. You will see some very sneaky photoshopping in the article version: thomasjfrank.com/feynman-technique-lpc-method/
Clarification: I wish I would have stated more clearly that you don't necessarily need to film your body or face - the important thing is that you make a video and then watch it later to add a critique. For some topics, it maybe more useful to film your hands drawing out a diagram.
Clarification 2: I specifically paste my video at the top of the section in my notes where I've recorded notes about that concept. That way, the accurate information is nearby, and I can quickly review it before watching to prime my brain to catch errors.
Question: Is verbally explaining a concept identical to writing it out when it comes to retention? Nope! While we can't say whether one is better than the other, research has found that verbal and written communication utilize different parts of the brain. Citation and further explanation can be found linked in the companion article (linked above).
Hope y'all find this one helpful!
When I study I always imagine that I'm teaching a class or a person, but recording and reviewing my studying is something I haven't thought about! Definitely trying it out.
What progam/app are you using to take your notes?
@@chrishaggit786 Notion! If you haven't seen it, I have a 2nd channel with lots of tutorials: th-cam.com/channels/d_WBvzBg1UbHE8j8MIL5Ng.html
@@Thomasfrank thank you!
Hiya! Love your content - it's helped me a lot. The 25+9 part....
“I don't know what's the matter with people: they don't learn by understanding; they learn by some other way - by rote or something. Their knowledge is so fragile!” ~ Richard Feynman 💪🏻🚀
"learn by rote". Wow! This remind me of some of my classmates and me when we were in elementary, junior high and senior high school. Now I found a term for that! Also, I'm glad that now I'm actually thinking about stuff relating to self improvement, for me and for everyone around me. Because if I get better, we can benefit from each other instead of being hurt by me.
@@lixiangyang5548 best of luck on your self-improvement journey 😊
Surely you're joking @@GrowthMindsetChannel
As a teacher, this is exactly how I plan my lessons. I "rehearse" my lecture as I build the lesson around a PowerPoint, Jamboard and Doc sheet. This ensures I step into the minds of my students, hit all the points of the lesson and that it all flows well into a 20 minute class activity. I practice the lecture performance by physically standing, walking and verbally giving a lecture to myself in my room or office from time to time to test out a new slide, question or activity. This is one aspect of why I love teaching. It helps me not only learn new concepts but also effectively communicate them through teaching these concepts to others and thereby adding value to my own intellect and life in general. Good stuff, Thomas.
That sounds like a fantastic life!
You're an awesome teacher, keep it up! 💪
Explaining a topic to someone else without actually having someone else to explain to through the power of TECHNOLOGY!
This helped me so much in my undergrad Kinesiology coursework! I'd lead study groups where I would prepare ahead of time and then "teach" my classmates. This made them want to study with me, and it really helped me learn the material well.
This takes me back I passed pre-nursing anatomy with a distinction because of your original videos and now onto a degree course and now you present an even better technique fantastic thanks for sharing!
I used to read something and then write out an explanation of what I’ve just learnt and thought that was great, however this is so so much better and I can’t wait to try it out. I’m doing a tone of research for my book and think this will be a turning point. Thank you !
Signed up for Brilliant - appreciate the consistent effort you put into sharing your learning journey through such thoughtful and genuinely helpful videos! Learning how to learn is THE foundational skill.
Your first video on The Feynman Technique is what introduced me to your channel. So it has sentimental value 👍
You're a learning hero of mine - you've offered so much to college learning and still, this is among the best work you've done so far - Bravo!
I was really excited to see a new video! Keep posting, and I will keep watching! Your videos have been getting me through college!
As an educational science student I really liked this video! The combination of active recall necessary to create your explanation in your video, the self-feedback to correct any mistakes and the use of multimedia (images + text) are all aspects of learning techniques that have a lot of research backing up their effectiveness.I think a lot of people could benefit from trying this approach. Great job!!!
I am repeatedly impressed by your attitude to learning. Thanks for this video!
All your videos are so helpful! And like you said, to combine all techniques in one and then use it...I've combined every technique you told on your channel and it works so much better! Thank you ♡
Brilliant ,Tom! I just started dong audio records of things I'm learning and you'r tips came out in perfect time to supplement it.
This is awesome. I always wondered why I never really preferred just one technique, and it's because I need a good mixture of each to keep myself interested and so I can actually understand it.
Great video. I can see the amount of time/effort that you have put into it. One simplified version of this that I use semi-frequently is when I write manuscripts for journal submission. The first draft is usually rough and just sketches over the information that I want to deliver. As I read/critique/revise the subsequent versions of this draft, not only the material improves but my understanding of the material also improves. This is similar for the programmers when they write their code.
Thank you for the vid! I'm in a spot in life where I need to study/learn a lot of things quickly. Learning efficiently is a godsend.
This is a good variation of the Feynman technique, and you've inspired me to try it (and to teach it to my kids), along with combining the two methods into a "Learning Megazord". Also I am looking forward to checking out your content on your "Thomas Frank Explains" channel.
This is absolutely brilliant! Thanks for the inspiration and clear instruction, Thomas!
*Perfect timing with school starting again! I’m hoping you get back to your more upload schedule*
This is great for both learning and making content! Will be trialling it when I come back to studying :)
These are some really interesting and unique ideas!! thank you for the video , loved it!
This has probably been the best video (in context of helpful and useful) I have every seen on youtube.
Great video! This will definitely help me in moving forward in my self-study for coding, thank you!
Critiquing is an effective way to get better at something, cuz I learn more about what my students are learning by their responses to tests (and my critique of them) and therefore where my own teaching needs improvement. Recording has never been considered by me though 🤔 which in hindsight seems silly. Thanks for these videos Thomas, they always stimulate a more productive approach.
I am so impressed ,at least something practical making a significant difference. WELL DONE. I am so thankful.
YESSS I saw your tweet on this!! Used a similar technique in medical school, but I WISH I'd had the idea to record myself on my phone to critique myself!! It always makes remembering easier when you imagine teaching someone else. Best of luck for getting the certifications!!
Yeah the critique part is super helpful! My main inspiration for doing it was working with my online lifting coach - I've been filming my lifts and watching his critiques of them for about 18 months now. Figured it would work just as well for academic purposes.
@@Thomasfrank Brilliant - translates perfectly! I'll defo use this for post-grad exams and educational vids on my channel! 😊
Hey @Doctor Azmain I’m starting medical school in september and I’d like to know whether you think that the time consumption this technique comes with would be outweighed by its effectiveness. Med school is all about learning fast, and I’m not sure whether I should use this or not.
Since you’ve already graduated I think you’re the perfect person to ask :)
@@nassimlecornet2676 A very good point! To which I'd say you have to be selective and use multimodal learning like Tom says! To consolidate key foundational topics that might be complex (renal physiology comes to mind!), this is perfect. For other topics, make good use of question banks, Anki/Quizlet/your flashcard app of choice, TH-cam videos etc. Because you're right, you simply don't have time to learn everything this way. Hope that helps!! 😊
I was thinking about this days ago. Thank you for uploading this one.
I was literally searching for your old video omg what a coincidence you made a new one
Awesome stuff Frankmeister 👏 👌 👍 back again with some ace content
I so appreciate your work on TH-cam. I’ve improved so much in my life because of your channel.
I think one bonus thing you can gain from this technique is to have more confidence explaining topics to others without actually explaining it to anyone (just the camera)
Honestly, this was an excellent video, Thanks Thomas!
What a coincidence! The Third Semester of my school starts tomorrow and I've been watching your "How to set up your workspace", ''Online Classes: A Survival Guide" in the last few days to be ready for my new semester and start it anew. This upload is a miracle and I will make sure to put your techniques to action!
How did it go ?
Thanks for letting us know this technique. Will try to experience and improve my learning!
I liked the idea of upload my own presentations about that I study usually to TH-cam...I will do it tomorrow!!! great video Thomas
Hoping this will be useful for my language learning. Thanks a million!
Hi Thomas! 23 yo mum / student / teacher... Thank you so much for keeping me motivated through the years!
Thanks man. Active follower of the technique for my personal goals.
Came from crash course, omg your content is fantastic and has benefitted me enormously!
Thank you for this boost in motivation, Thomas 💚
Yay!, Thomas is back!!
Wow this is such a game changer! Thank you Thomas🤩🤝✨
Attempting to teach something required you to know what you are talking about. That is why it is so good to exercise this technique. Thank you 🙏
Thanks a lot mahn, i'm going to apply this technique when i'm studying. I first discovered this technique when i'm tutoring my cousin, I noticed that I'm learning more than him because I retain more info when I'm teaching the meterials. So i searched it up on youtube and I came across your channel. Since I can't always teach my cousin, I'm going to use this variation. I'm Going to college this year :")
Glad the method's been so helpful! And good luck with your first year!!
Helped out as always do , thank ya 💝🤟
great to see you man
I will definitely try this out! Brilliant idea, thank you!
Very helpful video! Thanks for sharing it to us.
Binging your videos in prep for school starting!!
Thank you Thomas...you've inspired me to make my own blog
very helpful. grasped a lot of information and technique will definitely use this
Great video with such good content!! Thank you!
Thomas, your videos help. thank you for doing your homework well...
Thanks Thomas before iam less productive and after watching your videos iam more productive. i can get more good marks than i got earlier
Thank you very much for this new technique.
This guy helps me always 😻
Ive been waiting for this sequel for awhile
Excellent content, thank you!
This is exactly what my daily journals are. A great way to learn and explore different ideas, topics and areas of learning.
Do you have daily Video journals?
@@trabalenguas i make videos of things i listen and read. It helps you to understand more and improves your memory about the subject.
Plus, it helps with your speaking and presentation skills, because when you listen to yourself, you can hear or see how you speak to others and how you can improve upon.
@@Eulerfromthefuture Very good tip! How often do you do it? I consume and learn a lot of new info everyday.
@@trabalenguas i record myself everyday. The more the better.
@@trabalenguas if you are learning a second language,its also a good tip to record yourself everyday. Hope it helps.
Considering the fact we have different styles of learning, this is a very useful tool!
Great video...and thanks for the shout out!!
Thank you for this video! Will have to give this a try
Thanks for your amazing videos. I'll begin using this technique with explaining your videos to others😊)
Great video! Gonna try it to learn calculus.
You said that you method is better than Feynman's one in some fields. I see it different, I think it's a natural evolution of the method.
If Feynman had the technology of today, probably he would've created a similar approach 👍
This was super helpful! Thx!
Ahh, the Longmont Potion Castle method, rolling around back there. Just catty-corner to ya.
Thanks Frank ❤️. I think this Will be very useful
Wow. Thank you so so much!
The OG is back !! 🔥❤️
Thank you so much, it's a very useful method.
This video is amazing! ❤️👌🏻
I like all your videos, you add a lot value 😘
Thanks for the advices brother
Thanks for the tips
I love this guy's stuff to teach. Absolute genius with all the techniques he uses and makes
Do you use OneNote when you were showing your outline?
@@Argumentiveableish I do everything in Notion, but OneNote should be equally good for this method. Honestly, any note-taking app will do - but ones that actually embed the video will work best. (Part of the reason I left Evernote is because it couldn't do this. Maybe they've updated since then.)
Thankyou so much you really changed my life.
Great!! Watching from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Great method I will definitely try it
Thank you for this video and the previous one. I hold a BA in psychology and if you were to ask me why I chose to study psychology, I would have given you a generic answer such as "Because I think is interesting" or "because I have always been interested in human behavior." Today, I am going to start learning how to describe my interest in psychology using the (your?) LPC method!! I always feel uncomfortable when someone asks me about my career, now I know why:)
This is so well done, I enjoyed how it was explained. Quality video Thomas, thank you!
Hızlandırmadan izlediğim nadir kanallardan 😂
Man If you want to ever become coach in power lifting then having two or three competitions under your belt will give you a big boost.
Thx for the tips!
I! LOVE! IT! Thank you❤
This is reaally good.
Love your video.
thanks tom 🥰
I'll try this method thanks 😊
Can you do a video on multimodal learning? This video was so useful! I'm going to apply the LPC method to my language learning routine.
I’m a first year med student, so I love that you talk about anatomy here. I’m actually studying the anatomy of the hand right now!
@@NikolaTesla-nn8dz CA da bir okul
Whoooah! I have to try this.
This is useful if you have the tech for it and limited options for live interaction. However, the real gold standard is being able to actually teach/demonstrate/retell what you have learned to an actual person, whether less or more knowledgeable than yourself on the topic at hand. Their feedback and/ or being able to demonstrate/retell/teach another what you have taught them is the real proof of the pudding in the eating (digestion) of it. Part of my job for many years has been to create or recreate 100s of different characters in corporate and therapeutic settings that convincingly make my audience/clients believe that I am an insider/expert rather than an outsider dilettante via quickly researching, choosing and learning the most salient and pertinent details for a particular presentation/event/training. Often with less than 48 hours to deadline with no external rehearsal other than talking my ideas through on occasion with my partner. My real expertise is in combining intellect with intuition in equal measure. After decades of real world experience in many fields, I can state that everything is learnable but not everything is teachable.
You've gotten bigger bro!!
Hey Thomas, I'd love a more in-depth video and with more examples, I like this technique a lot! Thanks!
Thanks man.
i saw PRS.. 😆anyway, missed this type of video. thank you. now, i need to evaluate my learning technique hahaha
It is a great technique, teaching to learn.
When I would study for a test or final I would make up cards like I am memorizing a lecture. Not a pure speech on the cards but bullet points. I would then go into a room so I didn't drive my wife to drink, and then pretend to give a lecture / teach a class using the bullet points on my note cards for reference. For classes like physics or calculus I also had a dry erase board and would teach the invisible class the various problems that they are going to run into along with rules and tips. By the time I had gone through several "lectures' per day over the week leading up to a final exam I was able to not use reference materials at all. Taking a test at that point was MUCH easier, even in calc where the profs would allow a page of formulas and what not. I would simply have those memorized and at the start of the exams, spend the first few minutes doing a mind dump of the formulas onto a blank sheet of paper. That, I believe, allowed my brain to not longer concern itself with "which formula to use" and "OMG! I hope XYZ is on the formula sheet already".
Teach to learn is awesome and me turning it into a pretend lecture helped me big time.
Genius level method.
