this is what i learned:br-regulate your attention meter and take care of it the bigger your attention meter is on the matter that you're studying, the more you will learn;br-students and teachers have responsibility: students must eliminate distractions, teachers must point out what is it that the students need to learn and search for on the class;br-your environment plays a big role in your attention capacity;br-what you pay attention to is key to what you achieve Comment from : @juancruzlives

So lesson 1: know what should you pay attention tobrlesson 2: attention is influenced/ controlled by many internal and external factorsbrlesson 3: reduce extraneous cognitive load and introduce complexity gradually Comment from : @abdulrahmanalmowafy5350

Bro casually put the republican Spanish flag in the thumbnail 💀 Comment from : @anoarkorol3895

How do you pay attention to those things left unsaid? Seriously lost me on that one Seems impossible I'm anxious to learn Comment from : @dannellmaguire

viva la republica Comment from : @tolai3004

I always thought this…brbrDriving and listening to audiobooks/ YouTube if it’s actually a good thing?brbrIt’s might be time efficient, but is it learning efficient? - 2 very difference things Comment from : @billybobinthehouse12

Many jobs require multiple tasks, multiple skills, that are interrelated All tasks must be done, multitasking is required This is the real world brbrHow about real world examples Maybe a contractor building several homes, coordinating the various activities of homes in different levels of completion brbrOr an R&D lab designing both hardware and software for a new project and how to deal with the new hardware and new software not working together brbrPeople doing these things need to learn the best ways of doing them too Comment from : @brucecorbettn9bh398

I have an impression that you are not trying to sell me anything Thank you Comment from : @alexeykulikov2739

I can relate to that I was good at school not because I was so much smarter br1 - I was able to focus and understand what was important to rememberbr2 - good memorybr3 - which leave plenty of time to think and to look smarterbr4 - just more raw energy that allow me to think more brNow I am older its good for me as my learning journey is not over ( I am in IT ) to improve my method of thinking and learning and solifidy all those things I was doing instinctively( because I was lazy and wanted to be done with school without struggling so those strategy emerged ) and also maybe learn new way to learn better and faster with energy and focus cost which are lower brI am glad to be remembered on the important of removing nonsense and learn one or two thing after the other it works actually faster brAh I remember what I was also doing for my memory was to create at least two paths in my head about something a datebrMy idea was if I remember that only with that sentence thats not enough I need a backup sentence because a all new thing that sit alone in the network in my brain also repeating at least two or three time if its a new new thing The brain is a network physical device, chemical machine its not magical and working with it and not how I wish it was, allowed more efficiency for me Comment from : @itscooldawgdonteventrip

I zoomed in to minimize the distraction This repetitive need became frustrating/annoying I would NOT have needed to zoom in IF this concept was not central to the presentation Comment from : @markbaugh6083

🐱👍 Comment from : @ikF3aV2m

The thumbnail made me think you were a Spanish Republican 🙂! Comment from : @guillermojustel

note for me :brpriming bri think we must focus even there is distraction because there is no perfect environment Comment from : @tarunarachmad3976

With this in mind, what should I do if I feel like I’ve reach my maximum cognitive load? Say that I’m reading a 30 page chapter of a textbook dense with concepts and I’ve feel like I’ve reach my maximum at page 4? Comment from : @khoitran8467

I'm from Brazil and I love your content! Comment from : @andersonmoreira3530

Takeaway: Teachers should tell students what they want them to learn so students know what to pay attention to Problem arises if a teacher refuses to do so One solution to that is too get that information from examining the answers of previous quizzes and tests Best to be done before attempting to learn anything because you cannot learn what you don’t pay attention to Comment from : @GiovannaChukwuma

Thanks Comment from : @iNeFFaBLeSaPiEN

That is great video I agree with points about known what to focus on when trying to learn something and also why thing at last you talked about that we need to known when algo stops working etc I have used it have drastically improved my learning Thanku for sharing your knowledge Comment from : @akhilbisht798

Still love your videos! Comment from : @fieuline2536

I know this might be weird expecting a reply on an eight-month-old video, but have you researched the link between learning and the ability of people to visualize concepts? I've always needed help learning because ideas never seemed to come together for me I've always wondered why it seemed so normal to say, "Imagine this Kanji as some form of a real-world object to remember this Kanji better" But those types of things never connected for me This might be a shot in the dark, but I wanted to ask Comment from : @seukosia

wait what? really? this video is mind-blowing omg Totally changed my view of focusing Comment from : @colen4308

Benjamin brso intriguing!brI agree with most of what you coveredbrbrI'm a practitioner of directed attention and perceptive and brwould be interested in possibly collaborating brJust to give you some idea what brI do bris I can perceive information not typically accessible by the average person Comment from : @IntuitionwithIvan

Extraneous cognitive load is exactly what I’m dealing with in my courses right now 😅 Comment from : @acasiaorr

Hey Benjamin, great video! You mentioned that the research says external focus works better than internal focus But it's pretty common in sports for coaches to teach specific elements of form, eg, "Keep your elbow in" Often athletes are encouraged to make these types of adjustments, do drills to achieve them, etc This seems to require internal focus Is there an appropriate time and place for internal focus, or is this just a completely mistaken approach? Comment from : @natesolon

The irony of the two simultaneously running cameras in a video about attention isn’t lost on me ;) For that reason, they were the scenes I needed to rewatch! Comment from : @AidanMmusic96

Your video description box is amazingbrExcellent referencing Comment from : @raymeester7883

Now imagine the world of the ADHD student Comment from : @raymeester7883
