Loved this! The Feynman Technique always reminds me that if I can’t explain it simply, I probably don’t understand it well enough yet. Such a great tool for catching blind spots in learning.

Very nice and takes the David Kolb model of Adult Learning the next step forward. The David Kolb model is: Concrete Experience, Reflective Observation, Abstract Conceptualization, Active Experimentation. Feynman's ELI5 would be a great way to Abstract Conceptualize without getting stuck in jargon. Many thanks indeed.

Good writeup - I'd heard about this a while back but your twitter thread made me want to reapply this concept. Also thanks for bringing me to substack!

Feynman is one of the great teacher, He had child like curiosity and can explain any complex topic with simple examples

Might be his learning style combined of -

First principles thinking

Observation skill - smaller and large scale mostly about surrounding nature

Life long learning

Intellect humanity - to change one owns view point when evidence arise
