Genius is found in simplicity

💡Fun learning hack: Combine ChatGPT with the tried-and-true Feynman Technique

The idea is simple: prompt ChatGPT to explain a concept as if you're 5, then as if you're 15, and finally as if you're 25 or have a PhD.

This gradual deepening of understanding is a game-changer! 🤯

🧠 What is the Feynman Technique? The Feynman Technique, named after the brilliant physicist, Richard Feynman is straightforward.

The four-step approach encourages us to teach a concept in the simplest terms to understand our own gaps in knowledge.

🔍 Here's how it works: 1️⃣ Choose a concept you want to learn. 2️⃣ Study and understand it thoroughly. 3️⃣ Explain the concept in your own words as if teaching it to a complete beginner. 4️⃣ Review and refine your explanation, identifying gaps and relearning areas where needed.

🌟 Why is it so effective?

By teaching others, we actively engage in the learning process and identify any holes in our understanding.

The Feynman Technique fosters a deeper comprehension because it requires us to simplify complex ideas and communicate them effectively.

💡 Tips for using the Feynman Technique:

• Use analogies and examples to illustrate abstract concepts.

• Write down your explanation and re-read it, refining as necessary.

• Practice with peers or consider recording yourself to track progress.

Teach to learn :) That's the power of the Feynman technique.
