Meta-Learning learning about learning.

Effective Learning

The same material can be learned many times faster if well formulated!

Don't do "it'll be useful someday learning" it's slow.

You want to group your study of something. Or it loses it's value. Treacherous enticing fallacy.

Kastan Day's learning philosophy

Emotional Salience!
Individual pieces fit into a single coherent structure (laticework!)
Teaching this way is very hard. It's so much simpler to just list out things to learn, so YMMV.

We’ll be leveraging the best available research on teaching methods to try to fix these problems with technical teaching, including:

Teaching “the whole game”–starting off by showing how to use a complete, working, very usable, state of the art deep learning network to solve real world problems, by using simple, expressive tools. And then gradually digging deeper and deeper into understanding how those tools are made, and how the tools that make those tools are made, and so on…
Always teaching through examples: ensuring that there is a context and a purpose that you can understand intuitively, rather than starting with algebraic symbol manipulation
