Science backed learning practices do allow one to enjoy learning more and worrying less. You have done a great job by bringing into limelight the practices that are effective and relieves one of the cognitive load.
Check out Powerful Teaching: Unleash the Science of Learning Paperback - 13 November 2024 by Pooja K Agarwal (Author), Patrice M Bain (Author) - It goes into more deeper of what's discussed in Make it Stick. There is uncommon sense of Teaching by Barbara Oakley.
Thanks! They’re excellent suggestions. I own both of these books. Let me know if you’d like me to do a book review and summary of each of them. I’d be happy to.
@@powerfullearninghub Yes, please go ahead I am happy to hear it. A few things I have observed based on most self-help books whether it be financial help like the intelligent investor or books recommended by Warren Buffett or science of learning like Make it stick or Uncommon Sense they don't offer tailored solution. They show how these rich and smart people got rich or became "successful" but most of them don't allow any tailored system approach that it will work 99% of the time and what tailored approach I can take that will help me or you? I don't see it in most books it's all same structure and wonderful discussion but there is no accountability, no actions to take can provide concrete solutions, approaches and skill developing and going past the foundation knowledge. What are your thoughts on that? There are videos out there disproving the retrieval practice and spatial repetition or pomodoro technique as it doesn't allow people mastery for a skill as well. But what I found out is that they are nothing more than clickbait titles/thumbnails trying to get more views.

@@satchrules101 If you're referring to the book in this comment thread (Powerful Teaching) I would say Chapter 5, Engage Students with Feedback-Driven Metacognition because highlights the importance of the teacher in helping their students to self-regulate their learning. If you're referring to Make It Stick, then my personal favourite is Chapter 2, To Learn, Retrieve. It's a really nice entry into the efortful and active role required by the learner to get the most out of their study and shows how simple - but often difficult - strategies can have massive benefits to our learning over time.
not entirely sure I agree with interleaving, at least from my experience lol. In college obv you study multiple fields related to whatever your degree will be in, all this did was tear my focus in multiple directions making it so I came out of college having learned nothing
Yeah, i can totally relate to what you mean. The research around interleaving shows it to be the most variable among the practice principles, so it really does depend on a few things: First, it depends on when in the learning cycle it is applied (e.g., always after initial mastery and only as a retreival strategy and never for initial aquisition); Second, it depends on what material it is applied to (e.g., it works better t within easily confused category sets such as differential equations or different painting styles, but is no good for between distinct category sets such as pharmacology items --> anatomy items, etc.); and, Third, at least one meta-analysis shows its not so effective for language learning where blocking learning can be more effective than interleaving (for various reasons, but partly due to the semantic nature of lingustic memory creating major networks of cue-dependencies for fluent and effective recall). So if I had my time stuyding again, i'd probably integrate retrieval practice --> distributed practice --> interleaved practice (these are in order of importance but they can also be combined).

I have weaponized adhd and dyslexia, i have been battling all my life to be able to study and remember things, will try these techniques.

@@powerfullearninghubHi I just finished listening to the book, was wondering what chapters do you think are the most importance that u think?
