Catherine Sebring Ive always called this "Proactive Procrastination"

Summary: 1. Corson Technique 1. Pinpoint EXACTLY where the confusion is 2. Use spaced repetition software to promote Spaced Repetition 1. Wanikani 2. Anki 3. Method of Loci - memory palace technique! 1. Imagine walking through a house with information plastered all over the walls. Walk through the same route during recall. 4. Hack Akrasia - working against Procrastination 1. Get commitment devices (Beeminder) 2. Short-term rewards 5. Improve the Pomodoro Techniques 1. Experiment with the Time Intervals (e.g. 45-15) 2. Write down distractions on a piece of paper 6. When learning, use both focused and diffused thinking 1. Focused thinking only uses Prefrontal Cortex; good for problems you already know or understand 2. Hence, use diffused thinking to help with learning 7. Gauge your classes (match speed at which professor move + speed that you understand) 1. Pre-read lecture notes 2. Ask questions 8. Start problem sets ALONE 1. When your friend solves a problem that you couldn’t solve, you’ll listen to their answer and say “I kind of get it.” Not good enough.

Dynamite presentation and good detail for these advanced techniques. Regarding tip number one, asking the right question, this can also help others. As a graduate student, I stopped in the professor's office just before class and discussed my specific area of difficulty. The professor used my question to start off the class. I think he realized "if this guy doesn't get it, maybe others are confused as well."

You are kinda lucky! When I was in university, we were not allowed to ask questions before the class but rather after, and in 50% of cases, the teacher would tell you to send an email. As I go back to uni next year, I hope the system will be different! Your teacher is just a genius!

I was che only to make questions (a lot), result? The only who knows something, and now the only who answer to the questions I maked, (professors checks if the students remember, I maked the question and I remember the answer:). Listen,think,ask,understand,remember, use it in life. This method works.

This channel is a blessing, I'm 28 and decided to go back to shool (1st year japanese), I have been working very hard from september on, but around the end on october I got sick and felt I was working a lot but not really knowing if it was efficient or working, and I have to say I felt very discouraged and found myself doing less and feeling guilty about it. But thanx to this channel, I found out what I was doing right and what I was doing wrong so I know what to keep, and it makes me hopeful and enthusiastic again. So thank you VERY VERY much!

I almost destroyed my mouse when clicking on "subscribe" to your channel.You are a fucking genius.. the best coach around .

1. what dont u truly understand , pin point it. 2. spaces repetition software 3. method of loci.( visualisation wrt rooms of house) 4. akrasia - 1. commitment device 2. short term reward - movie/game 5. pomodoro , 45 mins 1 task only, 15 min break. 6. distraction note downs eg. urge to use phone / website 7. diffused or focused thinking - prefrontal cortex.

Hey, Thomas. Just want to say thanks for the video. I'm a professor; I use this and a few of you other videos in my college classes. I like them because, as you say, many techniques given in college texts and classes aren't that effective. You use many that I use, and then some. It's great that they are available online for ease of access and use. You can tell by the number of views and subscribers you have that these techniques exist in the, as I say, no BS zone.

+relaxingrecords - Relaxing Study Music - thanks!

I'm watching this video to help give me ideas for my younger high school students. They've never really been taught to study and they've got ACT/SAT coming up. I really appreciate these techniques and will be making an activity for students to do as they go along with the video.

I appreciate this information. I'm an older, old as dirt student, and these suggestions have given me ideas that will help me be a better student, and more prepared for the next semester. Thank you for your time and effort in putting this video together. Excellent.

The Method of Loci is incredibly tedious and time consuming, but it's brilliantly effective. I used the method when I was taking up Plant Taxonomy and we had to be able to identify 500 - 700 species of plants in the field (plants' morphology change much depending on different factors which makes the subject incredibly hard and is feared upon in our college) including their scientific and family names by the end of the semester. Thanks to this tip, remembering latin names came easy. Thanks for the info by the way, I'll try implementing the other techniques in my studies.

I'm already using Anki to learn French and Russian. Love it. And if I make one side of the "card" a picture, it almost feels like I'm playing a game not studying. But it is effective nevertheless.

It is quite fascinating how much you have smoothed out in your presentation since you made this.

Hey Thomas, just wanted to say this was autoplaying in the background, and I have to say, the glow up is real. Everything from scripting to production quality, it's really great to see how much you've learned and implemented over the years. :) I know I sound patronising as hell, but it's well intentioned!

Hey Tom, thanks for all these great tips! I'm currently trying to find a pomodoro interval that works for me... I was also interested in what you said about focused thinking vs diffused thinking, I'd love to learn more about that actually. Your videos are really a huge help to me and my life right now, so thank you :D

Fabulous is a habit app I use to "pull myself together". I have three routines I use everyday and of couse you decide for yourself how many and how long those is. Among my routines is "studying" and "reading". There is a timer that you can pause and play and i love that i can hear music while the app is active. Also it gives a little sound when you have been doing your habbit for i while so you don't have to look at your phone all the time and there is also a little icon that show how long you are in the progress. Good app for keeping yourself at work and for getting new habits 😊

I would set a timer, and get yourself in the habit of going back to work as soon as the timer goes off. You can literally do anything, just make sure you aren't doing anything study related in those 15 minutes. I would suggest walking around as you were just sitting for a while. Maybe do some chores, eat a snack, talk to someone, or check your phone if you want. Just relax your mind on your break by doing tasks that soothe the brain rather than challenge it.

I've been searching all over KZread looking for a video that offers good study tips and, you're right, they're all very basic compared to this! Thank you so much for all the videos! A side question: If diffused thinking is more effective learning new material, then should this method be implemented during classroom lectures? If so, how should one go about doing this?

Sometimes I record myself reading my notes and then I plug in my earphones and its gets in my head forever

My advice to you is this.. If you are in your freshmen or sophomore year you should really look into what interests you in the field. I say this because soon you will not have the time to pursue what you want. Your personal projects will suffer greatly.. but that is the price that must be given. If I had to say though.. I would look at maybe some web technologies. That is only because my own path had lots of opportunities for me to make some side cash doing these things. CS does not really expose us to web development.. but.. it is becoming more and more a job only we can do.

Hello, nice to meet you here

tip 8 was super helpful, I always worked with a friend in physics and together did well but when we both sat the mock exam separately we struggled as she was better at half of the questions and I was better at the other half we definitely relied on each other too much and so didn't work as hard at the topics we weren't as good at. luckily we realised this before the exam. Work with others only when you need the help or inspiration, otherwise try to figure it out on your own

I'm really glad you meantioned the method of loci, it's a really deep and usefull tradition, with the right tools and enough practice with assosiation, you can use it to memorize anything. If you put some effort into fleshing out the tecniques it becomes easily the best tool for learning and processing on a deeper level, it's so much more than simple recal of mundane facts, it has been used in the mideval tradition to change yourelf for the better by memorizing wisdom and virtues

I click on read more, but it's not showing the punchline. This joke is a flop.

You're awesome! Thank you so much :) I've been struggling in college right now, and it's making me lack so much confidence in my academic career. Thanks for the tips.

Im glad I’ve figured out a few of these already.

Just had to sub, thx man

Would the "Method of loci" be the same technique as Sherlock Holmes "Mind Palace" ?

Yes

A nicely produced video, and properly edited. Thumbs up, Thomas F.!

The explanation of diffused versus focused thinking made me realize why I juggle my legs so often in class. I'm trying to diffuse my thinking in a setting where I can't get up.

Nice tips,but most importantly, I dig your heavy stubble bro. Which blade cover do you use ?

+Francesco Emanuele Russo no joke - I use a $20 electric razor that my parents got me for Christmas 8 years ago. I've never changed the blade or anything. Edit: Oh yeah, and I use a #2 for both my hair and beard.

+Jara Greene (greenexjara) I'll throw in my bit of knowledge on this, I think it can help. The whole concept of "studying" for a language is wrong. You have to feel the language, you need to get into the culture of the specific language. You need to hear it a lot and you absolutely have to speak it as often as you can. From there on, it's not that hard. Try to find a native speaker and teach him your native language instead, that's a great way to learn super fast. That and watching Tv shows and movies in that language. Reading also helps but that's secondary. Speaking from experience here, I'm fluent in 4 languages (English is my third) and I'm learning Russian atm, which is much harder than anticipated.

I know what you mean, thats why I need to study for it because i unfortunately do not have those kinds of resources...but the problem is all the hispanics that I'm friends with do not speak the Spaniard form, they are not from Spain, rather puerto rico, Mexico, and el Salvador.

Also, my span 101 course is really big on punctuation and spelling. So listening all the time is not even a component of exams.

This video was in an assignment for school but i honestly enjoyed this thoroughly. Really helpful and informational.

Wonderful explanation! Thanks! Hope more people watch these helpful videos. Thmas is wonderfully eloquent and presents the ideas in a clear and organized fashion. I am full of admiration.
