Master Learning By Teaching 📚 The Feynman Technique 📝 Using Obsidian

Hi Friends, my name is Callum aka wanderloots. By popular request, in this video, I show you how I actually use Obsidian & note-taking to explore a topic: The Feynman Technique. The Feynman Technique is one of the best ways to learn and improve your learning, through teaching.

I use the Feynman Technique in this video to explain the Feynman Technique (meta, I know), while walking through my Molecular Zettelkasten note-taking system in Obsidian. I use this system to create an outline for a newsletter, this YouTube video, & to publish to my digital garden. If you're interested in seeing how the newsletter turned out, consider subscribing to Recalibrating: paragraph.xyz/@wanderloots.eth?referrer=wanderloot… (publishing the newsletter soon 👀)

I also touch on why Obsidian is the best app for my PKM system (personal knowledge management), one I've used for years to write over 200,000 words in my newsletter. As I use my Molecular Zettelkasten system, I show you how you can use the different settings, plugins, and templates to augment your note-taking, with a view to an AI-assisted future 👀

I have a related video that goes through a complete overview of Molecular Zettelkasten and why it fits so well into knowledge theory 🧠:    • What is Zettelkasten Note-Taking? 📝 Why It...  

I hope you enjoy! ✨

P.S. I greatly appreciate any feedback, please let me know what you think 😊
