Ultralearning adalah strategi pembelajaran yang mandiri dan intens, dirancang untuk menguasai keterampilan dan pengetahuan yang kompleks dalam waktu yang dipercepat. Ini adalah pendekatan yang disengaja dan terarah, yang mendorong individu untuk secara konsisten melampaui batas kemampuan mereka demi efisiensi maksimum dalam akuisisi pengetahuan. Ultralearning berbeda dari pendidikan tradisional karena menuntut pembelajar menjadi arsitek aktif dari perjalanan belajar mereka sendiri, bukan hanya penerima pasif. Di tengah perubahan ekonomi dan teknologi yang pesat, kemampuan untuk terus-menerus mendidik diri sendiri dan menguasai ide, subjek, serta keterampilan baru menjadi sangat penting. Ultralearning menawarkan kerangka kerja strategis untuk mempercepat kemajuan karier, memfasilitasi transisi ke karier baru, menumbuhkan keunggulan kompetitif, dan membangun kepercayaan diri yang baru. Ini adalah alat yang ampuh bagi siapa saja yang berambisi untuk mencapai lebih banyak dan menonjol dari keramaian. Metodologi ini berakar pada perjalanan eksperimen pribadi Scott H. Young dan didukung oleh sembilan prinsip inti: Metalearning, Fokus, Keterarahan, Latihan, Pengambilan Kembali, Umpan Balik, Retensi, Intuisi, dan Eksperimen.Dengan menerapkan prinsip-prinsip ini secara sistematis melalui proyek yang terstruktur—mulai dari perencanaan yang cermat hingga eksekusi yang disiplin dan strategi pasca-proyek—Ultralearning memberdayakan individu untuk mengambil kendali penuh atas pembelajaran mereka, mengubah pengetahuan sementara menjadi aset permanen yang dapat diandalkan

My conversation with Scott H. Young about his new book, Get Better at Anything. The post Podcast: How to Learn Anything appeared first on Chris Bailey.
Scott H. Young, author of Get Better at Anything, joins us to demystify the true essence of learning, improvement, and mastery, shedding light on how parents can guide their teens to excel both academically and personally.If you've enjoyed Talking to Teens, we'd love if you could leave us a five-star rating, and if you have time, a review! Full Show NotesParents face the continual challenge of helping their teens become proficient learners. With teens constantly navigating the realms of academics, sports, and personal interests, understanding how they can master new skills is invaluable. So how can we, as parents, support our teens in their quest for mastery—whether it's in school subjects, sports, or their personal hobbies?This week we have the privilege of speaking with Scott H. Young, author of Get Better at Anything. Scott is an expert in the domains of learning and mastery, best known for his pioneering research and practical guides on how individuals can achieve excellence in various life fields. With a background deeply intertwined with education due to his parents being teachers, Scott's insights are grounded in both personal and professional realms.In this episode, we uncover effective strategies to help teens become better learners and improve their skills more efficiently. Scott shares fascinating insights about retrieval practice—a method that solidifies memory retention better than repeated exposure. While traditional beliefs suggest problem-solving without guidance builds deep understanding, Scott reveals how observing and emulating can often yield better results.Mastery Through ExamplesFor Scott, learning isn't just about trial and error; it's about studying examples and getting comprehensive practice. The perfect balance involves ‘See, Do, and Feedback'—a cycle that ensures effective learning. Scott also touches on cognitive load theory, explaining how our limited working memory plays a role in learning and offers practical advice for leveraging this understanding to aid teens in their academic endeavors.Failing ForwardFacing challenges is essential for growth, but Scott emphasizes the need to strike a balance between challenges and successes. Early failure without appropriate support can demotivate teens. Instead, Scott advocates for building confidence through small wins before presenting more complex challenges. This method not only helps teens stay motivated but also prepares them to handle tougher problems with resilience.Creating Practice LoopsA significant part of Scott's methodology is designing practice loops. Ensuring that teens get enough variability in their practice sessions is crucial for long-term retention and generalization of skills. Rather than sticking to blocked practice where the focus is on one type of problem, Scott encourages mixed approaches to help teens become flexible and adept problem solvers in various contexts.Fear and LearningFear is another major obstacle in the learning process. Whether it's test anxiety or fear of public speaking, these emotions take up cognitive resources that could be better used for problem-solving. Scott discusses exposure therapy as a way to help teens gradually face their fears, thereby reducing their anxiety over time. He underscores that persistent effort in overcoming fears is key to long-term mastery and success.In the Episode…Our conversation with Scott yields numerous actionable strategies that can be beneficial for parents looking to boost their teens' learning potential. Beyond the highlights mentioned above, we also delve into:- Why early assessment in classrooms can be demotivating and how mastery learning can help.- The importance of creativity and productivity in achieving mastery.- Strategies for unlearning bad habits and adopting better techniques.- Real-world examples of how small adjustments in teaching techniques can lead to big improvements.For those interested in diving deeper, you can explore more of Scott's insights at scotthyoung.com where you can also find his books and podcast. Tune into this episode to learn how to foster an environment conducive to mastering new skills and to encourage your teens to reach their full potential.

Scott is a wall street journal best-selling author of Ultralearning: Accelerate Your Career, Master Hard Skills and Outsmart the Competition. His work has been featured in The New York Times, BBC, TEDx, Business Insider and More. His new book Get Better at Anything – 12 Maxims for Mastery is available now. It explores why it's so difficult for people to learn new skills, arguing that three factors must be met to make advancement possible, and offering 12 maxims to improve the way we learn. The MIT CHALLENGE: "In 2012, I decided to try to learn MIT's 4-year undergraduate computer science curriculum in 12 months, without taking any classes. I was successful in passing the final exams for 33 classes and completing the required programming projects. You can view my TEDx Talk regarding the challenge" Scott H.Young. I'm currently learning Spanish (a mental challenge) and Muay Thai (a physical challenge) so this episode will be great for anyone looking to learn a skill; and the framework Scott created to do so. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show: How building permanent habits requires understanding the carrying cost and reducing the effort required to sustain them. The role motivation plays in pursuing difficult goals, and reducing friction can help sustain motivation. The misconception around traditional learning styles and why it has little evidence to support it. The secret with desirable difficulties, such as variable practice and retrieval practice; and how it can enhance learning and memory retention. Unlearning old skills and techniques may be necessary when learning something new. The principles of retrieval and retention in Ultra Learning have been particularly impactful for readers. Invest time in meta-learning before starting a new skill or subject. Why you need to expose yourself to your fears to overcome them and reduce anxiety. And much more.

Scott Young makes an extremely welcome return to the podcast having written a new book about learning that follows up on the smash hit 'Ultralearning'. 'Get Better at Anything' has a different flavour as it takes us on a more practical journey to explore the development of skill in multiple domains. I was gripped by this conversation as we explored: What Tetris players can teach us about getting better.Why the mind is not a muscle! Why we should value variability over repetition.Why improvement is not a straight line. Why practice must meet reality. Amongst a whole heap of other things. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
