Deconstructing the Meta-Skill of Learning How to Learn

​What do you need to learn fast and remember well? That depends on many factors, but knowing how you learn is the first crucial step.

​In this live session, we'll workshop the foundational blocks of the meta-skill of learning how to learn. You probably already have a collection of tools to learn new skills (even if you don't use them to learn), and in this session we'll see how we can fit them together in a way so they guide our attention in a way that we can learn.

​Apart from software tools, we'll also be diving into some mental tools. We'll discuss why practices like cramming, rereading, and simple highlighting are ineffective, and why counterintuitive approaches like forgetting and daydreaming work much better.
