In this episode, we dive into cognitive psychology and debunk common myths about learning. We explore why rereading doesn't work and discuss powerful strategies like retrieval practice, spacing, interleaving, and elaboration to help improve memory retention. We also talk about the importance of embracing challenges, cultivating a growth mindset, and recognizing how our minds can trick us into thinking we know more than we do. Plus, we challenge the idea of fixed "learning styles" and explain why focusing on building mental structures is key. Tune in for practical examples on how these strategies can boost learning in education, professional training, and everyday life.
