Chapter 88 Essence
"The second step is to teach imaginary people. It is to imagine a person standing in front of him and then handing over this knowledge to the other party."
"For example, I imagine giving the knowledge of 'Divine Light' to Holt, then I will tell the imagined Holt: After the mysterious power of the Divine Realm passes through the holes of the barriers of the two realms, it forms a scene that can be seen by the meditative spiritual body, called Divine Realm Light."
"The third step is to judge the result. If I teach it very well, it means that I have mastered this method. If I teach it not smoothly enough and say it stutters, it means that I still don't understand, so I have to learn it again and repeat the second step."
"For example, I think what I said was going well, so I went to the next step."
"The fourth step is to simplify the content. That is to make the content taught before simpler and easier to understand, among which 'more' is the key."
"For example, I will re-say to the imagination of Holt: The light of the God Realm is like the leakage in a thatched hut on a rainy day. The sky is the God Realm, the heavy rain is the mysterious power, the roof is the barriers of the two realms, and the leaking water is the light of the God Realm."
"This process is very simple. It looks very similar to Carlos's method. It seems that it is teaching others. It seems that the details are different, right?"
After Su Ye asked, many people nodded slightly in a daze.
Su Ye continued: "Then I will talk about the difference between our two methods. Using Feynman's skills is simple, but it is very, very difficult to understand in depth, because I only dare to say that I can use it, but not completely understand it."
"The first difference is the difference between real people and fake people. Obviously, my method can be used anytime and anywhere, but his ones are not. Even when walking on the street, I can imagine that I am teaching someone. Carlos walked on the street and suddenly wanted to learn. First, he had to find someone who looked more patient. Okay, an old man looked very kind. Carlos walked by and raised his head proudly and said, 'Do you know what magic is? Magic is...' The old man quickly interrupted him and said, 'Hello, fifth-grade Carlos classmate, my name is Plato, yes, it's the Plato you think of in your mind'."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Some teachers smiled and shook their heads. Su Ye's mouth was indeed awesome.
Su Ye continued to smile and said, "This is a learning method, not a team competition. If a method requires finding a patient person to play a role, then I can invent countless methods. The first step of each method is to 'find a kind god to make me omnipotent'."
Everyone nodded and agreed with Su Ye's statement.
Su Ye asked: "Why did he think that this method can only be used by real people? Because he or the people who helped him can only see me teaching Hort, but I can't see the people I teach. There is another particularly interesting point. He used "teaching as learning" three years ago to tell others about it, but the "teaching as learning" he actually refined must have real people. I think he doesn't believe in the way he did three years ago, nor does he seem to be refining his own method."
Many people think about it.
Carlos's expression remained unchanged.
Su Ye continued: "The second difference is that it is 'simpler and easier to understand'. Why must it be simpler and easier to understand?"
"Fehman is a wise man, and I can't quite understand it completely. There are multiple reasons to be simple and easy to understand. I only say I can understand it."
"The first type is to verify. Do we really understand or falsely understand. People who make bread more delicious must be better bakers, and those who speak more and can understand people must understand that knowledge better."
"The second is for easy understanding, and the third is for easy memory. Obviously, the leaking thatched hut is easier to understand and easier to remember than the light of the divine realm."
Su Ye turned to look at Holt and said, "I often talked for a long time while teaching Holt. Everyone understood it, but he just didn't."
Many people laughed with kindness, and Hort was embarrassed to scratch his head.
Su Ye spread his hands and said, "It doesn't matter if he understands it or not! It doesn't matter if I understand it! Why? Feynman's skills are learning methods, and the focus is on teaching. This is the third difference between me and Carlos."
"Why did he add questions and answers? Because the people who helped him saw me asking questions or answering Hort. I did that mainly to help Hort, and secondly to improve learning results. Asking questions and answers are not the key to Feynman's skills. No matter how good Hort's questions are, can he have difficult questions on the test paper? I think this principle is very simple."
Many students opened the magic book record, and even the three masters of the Holy Land were thinking about Su Ye's words.
Unlike ordinary students, the three masters did not directly judge whether this method was good or not, but learned first, then continued to think about it before finally reaching a conclusion.
On the contrary, many ordinary students feel that they understand after listening, but they feel that they understand completely and do not think deeply.
After a while, Su Ye saw that everyone was thinking clearly enough, and then he slowly said: "Now you can compare what Carlos and I said. Does Carlos's method seem to be describing the process of teaching Hort? And am I learning for myself?"
Many people inside and outside the conference hall, including the teachers, were nodding involuntarily.
Regardless of whether they can understand Su Ye’s analysis, at least Su Ye is talking about deep things, while Carlos has been talking about superficial things.
"What do you think, Carlos?" Su Ye asked.
Carlos calmly, as if he had already thought of a response strategy, and said, "I still insist that you stole my method. But there may be another possibility that our method looks similar, but there are many differences."
Su Ye stared at Carlos' eyes and said slowly: "Suppose your and my methods have nothing to do, they are independent of each other. So what will we do after we discover this? Or we will analyze it carefully, contact the other party, or ask the teacher to help analyze it. The most intense method is to ask the school to come forward to find out. Your reaction is very interesting. First, spread my rumors, and then I can't wait to expel me from the school. Why? The reason is very simple. You planned to expel me from the beginning, and you have been sure from the beginning that my method is the same as you! Unfortunately, you underestimated Feynman's skills and underestimated me!"
"This is all your guess, not evidence. Master Cromwell, he is slandering." Carlos remained calm, and his hand gently grabbed the robe and quickly released it.
"Su Ye, such words without evidence are meaningless." Cromwell said seriously.
Su Ye sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I can only tell the essence of Feynman's skills."
Carlos looked at Su Ye in surprise. Is what he said just now not essential enough?
Cromwell squinted his eyes and moved his lips slightly, and he was about to break it, but the osmanthus noticed that the armrests of the big chair were slowly raised.
Cromwell remained motionless.
"Carlos, what do you think is the essence of teaching as learning?"
Carlos smiled and said, "I have said just now that the essence of teaching is to constantly discover what you don't know by teaching, and force yourself to learn by teaching."
