我对抽认卡的喜爱
作者分享了她重新认识抽认卡(flashcards)的价值,并阐述了如何利用它们进行有效学习。
起初她认为抽认卡只适用于死记硬背,但通过学习“如何学习”课程,她认识到间隔重复(Spaced Repetition)的重要性,并开始使用Anki软件进行学习。
她强调抽认卡应用于巩固理解后的知识,而非取代理解本身,并建议制作自己的抽认卡,而非依赖他人。
此外,她还将抽认卡融入笔记习惯,记录关键的直觉和“aha”时刻,并用间隔重复来安排复习,从而帮助自己即使中断学习多年也能快速恢复学习进度。

For a long time, flashcards were not on my radar for effective learning. I used it for English vocabulary when I was learning English as a teen, but I never considered using it for subjects that require deep understanding. When thinking about flashcards, an image that swiftly sprang to mind was of someone who mechanically memorizes definitions and equations, brute-forces through exams without comprehension. Such rote memorization is indeed detrimental to learning. This sentiment is common in STEM fields. A quick search leads to reddit posts like this where higher upvoted answers dismiss the value of flashcards.
My perception changed through the learning how to learn course, where I relearned about Spaced repetition, the technique of reviewing topics at increasing intervals. Using spaced repetition as a general-purpose learning tool (rather than just for rote memorization of vocabulary) was perhaps the most important thing I learned from that course. The course also specifically mentioned Anki, perhaps the most famous flashcard software, as a way to facilitate spaced repetition.
