Introducing PassionEconomics
If you’re after a way to supercharge your learning and become smarter, The Feynman Technique might just be the best way to learn absolutely anything.
With the Feynman Technique, you learn by teaching someone else a topic in simple terms so you can quickly pinpoint the gap in your understanding.
There are four steps to the Feynman Learning Technique:
Choose a concept you want to learn about
Pretend you are teaching it to a student in grade 6
Identify gaps in your explanation; Go back to the source material, to better understand it.
Review and simplify
After 4 steps, you’re able to understand concepts more deeply and better retain the information.
Welcome to Passion Economics by me, Prasanna Venkatesh, and I must say this. I know nothing about Economics.
One concept a day
Every day, I take one economics concept/principle and explain it to you in layman's terms. My goal is to self-teach my way into becoming an Independent Economist, and in the process, share my learnings with you whether you're learning economics out of curiosity or as a career choice.
Paul Krugman believes that economics is about people - how they earn a living and how they spend their income.
It sounds like an important topic we all should understand.
Happy learning!
