Shorten the road from theory to practice through transfer to learn more effectively.
The main concern is about creating the strongest and shortest connection between your learning context and your target environment.
It’s about cultivating directness in your learning this means applying your knowledge as soon as possible. It’s also called project-based learning where you set your immediate environment so that you can use your newly acquired knowledge as quickly as possible. Because you learn the quickest by doing. For example you'll learn French by speaking French; you'll learn to code by writing code; you'll learn to cook by actually cooking etc.
Why?
Because we didn't evolve to learn passively [1].
Because doing sheds light on things we don't know we don't know [2][3]
Because it exposes you to feedback. Feedback is crucial for getting better because it tells you whether you're going in the right direction [4]. It also introduces stress, which is imperative to learning [5].
There are three types of feedback ordered by quality. Corrective pointing out your mistakes, informational process, outcome. [6]
If you don’t get feedback, fail on purpose.
To put this type of learning on steroids try immersive learning. It’s about immersing yourself into the environment as deep as possible. For example if you want to learn French you go to for a three month trip to Paris and try to speak it. However sometimes you can’t immersive self into the environment to try to learn foreign sample plane pilots what can then do is to replicate the environment as closely as possible.
