RE: One Yeti's Perspective #39: How Should We teach?
This sounds like the The Feynman technique and it's certainly a solid way to tech people how to learn. As you've said, if you can explain what you've just learnt and then apply it, you've properly learned it. Teaching people the answer without the method is certainly a bad long term plan.
Yeah, I had to look that up haha. It said that Feynman could teach..
Teaching quantum physics to virtually anybody is a feat. I do believe that we should sow deep. Even the little things like tying shoes. There is always a chance that you are teaching someone to tie that will one day tie the shoe of someone who can't. Be well!
