The BEST Way to Learn ANYTHING (Especially Anatomy)!!! | Institute of Human Anatomy

What if learning something takes too long than just memorizing

Thank you 🙏🏾

prior knowledge

Learning about active recall and especially the Feynman method the way you just taught it, instantly just made me a better student and more importantly a better teacher. My students thank you, if they knew you, they will want to thank you, because hopefully I will no longer bore them and rock them to sleep.

Amazing... Thank you so much for this!!!❤

I basically do this compulsively. I take things I'm learning and imagine I'm explaining it to a friend or family member and it helps me Internalize or understand it

Awesome info

Astonishingly i learned that from scrubs of all places 😂

Aight got a test in a week or so, I'll try my best

4better future 💪💪💪 ( maintaining the balance ♥️🤍🖤)

Now my Huskies and I have new things to talk about together. 👏

This blew my mind. I've been struggling with ADHD my entire life and can't focus even with medication. I do love how spontaneous my mind is and yet it's hard to get tasks done. I just want to learn so much all at once! Anatomy, languages, fix a car, repair a home, etc. This video helped me trumendously right now because I'm trying to study some anatomy and you described me so well.. That I Want to work on my boney landmarks, origin and insertion, maybe even distally and medially! Why are we so difficult to live with ourselves at times? Best friend and worst friend. Trying to change that in 2023 right now making better life choices. Thank you ✌️

I'm an autistic student who this year, just placed myself at a new school in the Science Stream class (im from malaysia) where we learn Biology, Chemistry and Physics alongside with 6 other subjects..Unfortunately, i got a little too panic and nervous because for one, i thought it was gonna be difficult for me to ace alot, and two, alot of subjects to me initially mean alot of memorization (i used that from i was 12-now, which was stupid), but because of this video and my friends' tips, i'm feeling relieved..definitely going to be using this to make myself understand and score hopefully.
Thank u for making this, hopefully i could achieve my dream in becoming a doctor in the future (like that Good Doctor show😅)

Thank you! As a nursing student, I needed this.

This is really resonating with me! I am 1 year into teaching a 600 hour massage therapy program and in my next rotation I want to spend at least a day teaching HOW to study- I love your videos, they’ve been so helpful for me and my students in learning A&P!

57 year old psychology student here.
I totally agree with this this technique, however, I struggle with time limitations and the amount of material to be covered.
I am expectantly waiting to be done with school so I can actually take my time to really study the materials. A it is now, I’m just flying thru pages and pages of textbooks. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Well I'm struggling with scapular muscle haha

Studying this way though requires someone like you to tell a student where they are tripping up and where to begin.

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.

Thank you for this!!!!

You gave the reason people have such a hard time and probably didn't even realize it. You said don't move to the next subject until you know the current subject. As a teacher you should know that it is impossible in a classroom to pass a test. Most teachers and schools move through material so fast that students can't come out with an understanding of the material. In fact it's hard enough to just regurgitate enough material to pass a test. Teachers forgot students have multiple classes they need to do the same thing for, jobs and other requirements. A teacher who teaches the same lesson plan and the same class for years better know it, yet forget how hard it is to learn it when you have no knowledge base..

Thank you so much!! This is sooo helpful and detailed. Thank you for honestly sharing your experience with us!

Thanks, Justin. I really like the confidence building of lecturing to an empty room, pausing and inquiring, ‘Does that make sense?’ Also, the idea of not moving on to the esophagus in studying the digestive tract until aspects of the tongue are thoroughly understood makes good sense, and applies to study of any topic. I see how that may make a confident speaker, secure in one’s knowledge. Thanks, Justin!

And pandemic would be 2000& What- 11 yrs ago 2012 Yeah right? Questions very very unanswered Years even got a phone went by How to get money on the phone Get a scooter Started government it's easy

My ADHD has me taking to my dog. My dog has been learning a load ton of Anatomy & Physiology. I also feel like it depends on the professor for the course.

Appreciate your video; I’m ems student.

Brilliant

Y'all need to be much more autistic about studying. Just saying.

One of your best videos among your many great videos.

"Does that make sense?.....
Good, good, good" 😁😂

Feyman Technique
Do you teach while reading that material or is it after reading that material??

thats awesome advice I wish someone had told me that 25 years ago haha

literally danny eflman's bro, i'm peruvian and this channel is pure quality dude

Don't practice until you get it right. Practice until you can't get it wrong.

Thanks. Additional benefit to being an adherent of this channel

Hi, Do you have any recommendations for clinical anatomy question bank?

That's so meaningful . You did a great video Masha'Allah ✨

Instead of explaining it out loud, you can also write out your explanation of a topic and then continue to refine what you've written as you correct your weaknesses.

Bro I do this all the time just not structured. It's more like being unable to continue studying so I just daze out and start imagining situations in which I'm explaining the things I just learned to someone and when I come across something I know I studied but don't remember I'll just go back and try to study it again and then resume the daydream with the new information. It's kind of like a review/rest period but again, it's not structured at all so I don't usually cover everything. Maybe I should 😅

...and I would add fo us kinesthetic learners, drawing diagrams or words on paper or chalkboard.

This really helped me on my studies thanks a lot, I really appreciate this! :D

Wow, I enrolled in AP2 before I mastered AP1 , and it was not fun

sir, i think there's a body behind u

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.

GREAT
THANK YOU
STAY BLESSED

❤.

I agree, it's a great way to learn, maybe even the best because you try to understand what you learn, and the brain likes when something's logical. Instead of trying to learn everything by heart, I rather read what I have to learn, try to explain it to myself in a logical way to understand it and makes it clearer and I repeat it.

Thank you!
