    Really liked how you used the Archimedes principle thingy as a well-detailed example. It reminds me of how when I was studying calculus, they gave me dosens of examples with lacking in-depth explanation in uni. Then I got a private tutoring lesson for like 10-20 bucks and the mathmagician lady made me understand integral equations by getting me to solve a single one with a flower, drawn instead of scary numbers and letters after the ingegral. 30 minutes of focused, in-depth work was worth more than a semester of brute force.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    02:23 🎯 *Three-Step Model: Seek, Reflect, Explore*
    - To enhance learning, follow a three-step model: Seek challenging questions, Reflect on mistakes with precision, and Explore different testing angles.
    05:25 🤔 *Reflecting on Mistakes*
    - Reflect on mistakes by considering the What (specifically identify the mistake), Why (understand the thought process behind the mistake), and How (determine actionable steps to correct the mistake).
    10:55 🚀 *Explore Different Testing Angles*
    - Create your own challenging questions through interleaving to explore different testing angles, reducing reliance on time-consuming practice papers.
    13:03 ⚖️ *Balance of Practice Papers*
    - Practice papers are a final supplement to studying; use challenging questions and interleaving to identify knowledge gaps first, then use practice papers to improve exam-taking skills.
    14:21 🧠 *Efficiency and Effectiveness over Blind Brute Force*
    - Prioritize efficiency and effectiveness in learning over blind repetition; prepare deliberately by sharpening your approach, not just by doing countless practice papers.

    6:20 The question is wrong: how can the rubber ball (8g/cm³) be more dense than water (1g/cm³)? Rubber is less dense than water irl. If we go by real life situation, ball B (metal ball) will displace more water than ball A (rubber ball) because metal sinks in water (all metals except Li, Na & K are denser than water).
    7:09 So, material type does impact the answer. You should compare volumes only when both the materials are denser than water.
    Basic Principle: Volume of displaced water = Volume of object SUBMERGED in water. Rubber partially submerges in water while almost all metals completely submerges in water. But ruber is denser than water according to the question.

      I thought same bro, but the question clearly says
      "when you totally submerge both balls"

    • @Krish-10
      @Krish-10 Рік тому

      ​@@manassehnhyirabaeshunMy point is that material type does affect the answer. At @7:07 he says material type is not relevant. Also, even if you fully submerge the rubber ball, it doesn't stay submerged. Even with respect to Archimedes principle, density of substance plays a crucial role (and density is inherent dependent on material type).

    If you have an exam and don't know anything. How do you seek knowledge gaps? If we get rid of practice papers. How do you know what you need to know and what you need to solve if you are presented with a list of concepts (exam review sheets). When you find what you need to know how do you strategize to study for the exam. Can you provide more specific real life scenario examples.

    This video is really useful for a uni student like me! I was panicking because my course hardly provides practice papers (im a business student) and most of the time, the papers' contents are outdated since our syllbus has been through many constant changes.
    I had always been taught that i can only do well by spamming practice papers and I got scared since i literally have no papers now but because if your video, ive learnt that what ive been taught is not necessarily true.
    I'm more confident in studying and acing my upcominf exams in 3 weeks now. Liked and subscribed :>

    Can you go into more detail about thinking complicated questions?

    How hard should I make the questions?

    • @bear5782
      @bear5782 Рік тому +2

      imo, it seems like the best way should be focusing on developing your own higher order questions to understand the relationships between concepts in the same topic and in other topics , how are they related, what features about these concepts link them together? Why is one concept important to another concept?

    • @icanstudystudent
      @icanstudystudent  Рік тому +1

      Hey @turtlesagemode, thanks for the question, what @bear5782 has mentioned here is spot on! You want to be making the questions so they allow you to understand the content better. In fact, the harder the question, the better it usually is.
      The extent to which you should make the question difficult depends on your curriculum. For example, you may not need to derive a certain rule or equation if learning the derivation goes way beyond your learning needs.

  • @darthom
    @darthom Рік тому

    5:48 any exemple of subpar reflection so we can avoid them?
    do we have to do it for all wrong questions and can we do it mentally?
    When I'm answering the what and why , they are kind of similar

    • @icanstudystudent
      @icanstudystudent  Рік тому

      Hey @darthom, a subpar reflection is simply one that does not take any effort into diving into why certain mistakes are made. Usually, if a student claims it was just a silly mistake or that they were just tired, these students ignore the other potential root causes.
      When you first start off, you should write it down. Once you have gained more competency around these techniques, you will naturally think in this reflective approach for any mistake you make.
      When answering the what, why and how, they are not similar. In "WHAT", you identify the mistake, in "WHY" you explore the cause of the mistake, in "HOW" you think of approaches to avoid the mistake.

      To always related information to one another, either their similiarities or differences (basically know the logic behind the concepts). Avoid relying on memorization (there is use to this but be selective). Hope it helps.

      Hey @emadsh4199, thanks for the question here!
      To make sure you are using the challenging questions technique correctly, all you need to do is...challenge yourself! You need to make questions you do NOT know the answer to and you need to aim to integrate multiple concepts in the challenge question. This helps you increase your knowledge mastery.
      To test your knowledge retention and finding gaps, you need to do some basic teaching or some practice questions and identify which concepts you struggle with the most.
