Made a discovery today.
I am trying to learn via videos and in class but been bored out of my mind.
Today I am studying a new course quickly via youtube and was getting bored so started looking around at the options and noted that the video could be played up to 2 times faster.
In school I skimmed books and remembered what I read. So it makes logical since that watching a youtube at 2 times speed should be the same, right?
Well it is, I did not get bored, I picked it up faster and with less distraction. I can watch the lesson twice in the same time if needing a reinforcement or if it is logically taxing I can slow it down less that to .75 or .5 to get it at the rate my brain can process it without confusion and frustration.
For those that haven't figured this lesson out yet, give it a try.
You can also apply caffeine to increase the speed at which your brain operates.
I recommend using headphones and sitting in a quiet environment to learn.
Let me know if this helps you and if you have any tips for us.
