We're tracking how well we know each topic to scheduling review sessions for us.

我們正在跟蹤我們對每個主題的瞭解程度，為我們安排複習課程。

So we always know what to be doing at any given moment.

是以，我們總是知道在任何時候該做什麼。

Yeah, that tech doesn't exist yet.

是的，這種技術還不存在。

At least not yet.

至少現在還沒有。

But in today's study skills episode, I want to show you how to build a system that does everything I just mentioned to save you time and give you peace of mind to know exactly what to work on at all times.

但是，在今天的學習技巧節目中，我想告訴你如何建立一個系統，它能做到我剛才提到的一切，從而節省你的時間，讓你安心地知道在任何時候都要做什麼。

And yes, you can grab a template for yourself at the end of this video.

是的，你可以在本視頻的最後獲得一個模板。

So we call it the GROW method, and it's based off Ali Abdaal's retrospective revision timetable.

是以，我們稱之為 "GROW 法"，它基於阿里-阿不都沙拉木的回顧性修訂時間表。

The idea of the GROW method is to build an adaptable review schedule, one that changes based on our confidence and how well we know the information before using the system.

GROW 方法的理念是建立一個可調整的複習計劃，這個計劃會根據我們的信心以及我們在使用系統前對資訊的瞭解程度而改變。

I would plan ahead of time when I would review each individual lecture one by one.

我會提前計劃好何時逐一複習每個講座。

Like on Monday, I'll do lectures one, two, three on Tuesday, four, five, six, and so on.

比如週一，我會做第一、二、三講，週二做第四、五、六講，以此類推。

That's a prospective revision schedule, and it has some issues.

這是一個未來的修訂時間表，存在一些問題。

First, nothing goes according to plan.

首先，一切都不按計劃進行。

Like what if it takes me a lot longer to do lecture three or I need to take Pepe to the vet or I come down with explosive diarrhea?

比如說，如果我做第三課要花更多時間，或者我需要帶佩佩去看獸醫，或者我突然腹瀉怎麼辦？

Then I have to shift my entire schedule around, which gets chaotic and I get overwhelmed, and that makes my diarrhea a lot worse.

然後，我不得不改變我的整個日程安排，這讓我變得混亂不堪，我不知所措，這讓我的腹瀉更加嚴重。

Second, a prospective revision schedule doesn't consider how well I know a topic.

其次，預期的複習計劃並不考慮我對題目的瞭解程度。

If I'm super confident in lecture one, then reviewing it is a waste of time.

如果我對某個講座非常有信心，那麼複習它就是浪費時間。

It's like farming with level 100 Diglett.

這就像用 100 級的 Diglett 進行耕作一樣。

It's already maxed out.

已經用完了。

And say lecture six is high yield and tough, but I don't get to it because I wasted all my time reviewing the previous lectures.

第六講是高收益的難點，但我沒聽懂，因為我把所有時間都浪費在複習前幾講上了。

Then I double screwed myself for the exam.

然後，我在考試時把自己搞得一團糟。

I wasted time reviewing stuff I already knew, and I didn't review the stuff that I didn't know.

我把時間浪費在複習我已經知道的東西上，而我沒有複習我不知道的東西。

So the GROW method avoids both these problems.

是以，GROW 方法可以避免這兩個問題。

And here's how it works.

具體操作如下

GROW is an acronym that explains the method step by step.

GROW 是一個首字母縮寫詞，用於逐步解釋該方法。

The general idea here is to consider every topic as a plant or a tree.

這裡的總體思路是將每個主題視為一草一木。

Some topics are harder to learn than others and require more time and attention.

有些主題比其他主題更難學習，需要花費更多的時間和精力。

You know, more water and sunlight.

要知道，多喝水，多晒太陽。

Problem is, we only have a certain number of days until the exam, which means we don't have unlimited water.

問題是，我們離考試只有幾天時間，這意味著我們沒有無限的水。

So the GROW method helps us distribute our water efficiently.

是以，GROW 方法可以幫助我們有效地分配水資源。

We schedule our reviews in a way that prevents overstudying topics we find easy and understudying topics we find challenging.

我們在安排複習時間時，會避免過多地學習我們認為容易的題目，而過少地學習我們認為具有挑戰性的題目。

Basically, spend more time with topics we're less confident about.

基本上，花更多的時間在我們不太自信的話題上。

Here's how it works.

具體操作如下

G stands for grid.

G 代表網格。

This method uses a grid calendar or table type layout.

這種方法使用網格日曆或表格式佈局。

You can use Microsoft Excel.

您可以使用 Microsoft Excel。

You can draw it out by hand.

您可以用手繪出來。

We also built a notion template that we'll link in the description below.

我們還製作了一個概念模板，將在下面的說明中鏈接。

We want to make one grid per exam.

我們希望每次考試只做一個網格。

List all the topics for that exam in the left column.

在左欄列出該考試的所有題目。

And then every time a topic is reviewed, record the date to the right.

然後，每次複習一個主題時，就把日期記錄在右邊。

R stands for rating system.

R 代表評級系統。

We want to come up with a color coded system to rate how confident we feel about each topic.

我們想用顏色編碼系統來評定我們對每個主題的自信程度。

For example, you can use this red, yellow, green traffic light rating system.

例如，您可以使用紅、黃、綠交通燈評級系統。

So every time we review a topic, we want to highlight that date with the color based on our confidence level.

是以，每次回顧一個主題時，我們都要根據置信度用顏色突出顯示該日期。

So if I didn't know this topic well, I'd mark it red.

是以，如果我不太瞭解這個主題，我會把它標成紅色。

So I know to spend more time and attention on it next time.

所以我知道下次要花更多的時間和精力來做這件事。

O stands for overall outcome.

O 代表總體結果。

The goal of the GROW method is that by exam day, we want zero topics to be read and as many topics to be green as possible.

GROW 方法的目標是，到考試那天，我們希望零題目閱讀，儘可能多的題目是綠色的。

And W stands for weakest topic.

W 代表最薄弱的話題。

With this system, we don't have to worry about planning what to study ahead of time because we'll always decide on studying the weakest topic at that moment, which I think is pretty nice because if I took the time to plan all of my review sessions ahead of time and then I fall behind, then I have to shift everything forward and it kind of ruins the entire schedule and it gets annoying.

有了這個系統，我們就不用擔心要提前計劃學習什麼了，因為我們總是會決定學習當時最薄弱的題目，我覺得這很好，因為如果我花時間提前計劃了所有的複習課程，然後我落後了，那麼我就必須把所有的課程都提前，這就有點破壞了整個時間表，讓人很煩。

But using the GROW method, I can study whenever I want and just look at what red topics or yellow topics I need to address.

但使用 GROW 方法，我可以隨時學習，只需看看我需要解決哪些紅色或黃色主題。

And if there are multiple red topics and I can't decide which one to review, then I'll go with the one with the least recent review date.

如果有多個紅色主題，而我又無法決定評論哪個，那麼我會選擇評論日期最短的那個。

We keep reviewing our weakest topic until our overall grid is as green as possible.

我們不斷複習最薄弱的主題，直到我們的整體網格儘可能綠色環保。

OK, so now I'm going to do a very quick demonstration about how to use the GROW method in a simple app like Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel, something that I know you all have access to.

好了，現在我要快速演示一下如何在谷歌 Sheets 或微軟 Excel 等簡單應用中使用 GROW 方法，我知道你們都可以使用這些應用。

And I'm going to leave the GROW acronym somewhere on the screen over here so you guys can follow along and know which step I'm actually tackling.

我會在螢幕上的某個地方留下 GROW 的縮寫，這樣你們就可以跟著我，知道我到底在做哪一步。

So step one is G, which is the grid calendar.

所以第一步是 G，也就是網格日曆。

So the cool thing about Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets is that it's already organized in a grid.

是以，Microsoft Excel 或 Google Sheets 最酷的地方在於，它們已經按網格組織好了。

So on the left side of the grid, I'm going to put all the topics or lectures and across the right is going to be the date that you actually reviewed them.

是以，在網格的左邊，我將列出所有的主題或講座，右邊則是你實際複習這些主題或講座的日期。

So let's just make an example that this is going to be anatomy class.

我們就以解剖課為例。

What do people, what do we learn in anatomy?

人們，我們在解剖學中學到了什麼？

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head.

其他的我就想不出來了。

The cool thing about using Google Excel, I mean, Google Sheets, is that you can duplicate each sheet at the bottom for every single class you're taking.

使用 Google Excel（我是說 Google Sheets）的好處在於，你可以在底部為你正在上的每一門課複製每張表格。

You're probably going to want to make one GROW table for each class you're taking.

您可能需要為每門課程製作一個 GROW 表格。

And so when I'm preparing to study for the day, I can just easily see every single class and quickly find the weakest topic that I need to study for.

這樣，當我準備一天的學習時，我就可以很容易地看到每一堂課，並迅速找到我需要學習的最薄弱的題目。

But I digress.

但我想說的是

I'm getting ahead of myself there.

我說得太快了。

Let's get back to anatomy here.

讓我們回到解剖學上來。

Let's say that's today's date, which is November 30th.

假設今天是 11 月 30 日。

I reviewed this lecture and maybe I did this one as well and this one, because why not?

我複習了這個講座，也許我還複習了這個和這個，因為為什麼不呢？

So moving on to the next part of the framework is our rating system.

接下來，我們將討論框架的下一部分，即我們的評級系統。

So I want a way to actually rate my confidence after I reviewed each lecture.

是以，我希望有一種方法，在我複習完每堂課後，對我的信心進行實際評分。

So a very easy to use rating system would be something like the stoplight system where red is super hard, yellow is kind of in the middle, and green is super confident.

是以，一個非常容易使用的評級系統就像紅綠燈系統一樣，紅色代表超級困難，黃色代表處於中間位置，綠色代表超級自信。

I know that's like the back of my hand.

我對此瞭如指掌。

So for cranial nerves, I'm not super confident in it, so I'll give it a yellow.

是以，對於顱神經，我不是很有信心，所以我會給它打上黃色。

And you can do that by just going up here to the fill color.

你只需點擊這裡的填充顏色就可以了。

I'm just going to do yellow for that one.

我只想做黃色的。

Sitz muscles, for some reason, I just got it.

坐姿肌肉，出於某種原因，我才明白。

Easy.

簡單。

So I'm going to give it a green.

所以我要給它一個綠色。

And neck muscles.

還有頸部肌肉

These guys are pretty tough.

這些傢伙都很強悍。

If anyone has studied anatomy, there's a lot of neck muscles in there.

如果有人學過解剖學，那裡面有很多頸部肌肉。

Kudos to my ENT boys.

為我的耳鼻喉科醫生們點贊

And let's say that tomorrow I'm going to review these other three lectures that I didn't touch yet.

比方說，明天我要複習我還沒接觸過的另外三講。

So 12, 1, 22, I'm just going to copy this and put them in these two cells.

是以，12、1、22，我只是要複製這些內容，並將它們放入這兩個單元格中。

And once again, we're going to use the R rating system.

我們將再次使用 R 評級系統。

And let's say that for some reason, not the best day.

我們可以說，由於某些原因，今天並不是最好的一天。

I'm going to give this a yellow.

我要把它染成黃色。

I'm going to give this a red.

我要把它染成紅色。

And I'm also going to give this one a red.

我也要給這幅畫塗上紅色。

Maddie's got a lot of work to do.

瑪蒂還有很多工作要做。

Anyways, moving on to O, which is the overall outcome of what we want.

不管怎麼說，現在說到 O，也就是我們想要的總體結果。

We want to see as many of these become green as possible.

我們希望看到儘可能多的綠色建築。

And I'm going to see that happen as I continue to review more and more and more each coming day.

隨著我每天回顧的內容越來越多，我將看到這種情況的發生。

So let's fast forward.

讓我們快馬加鞭。

Dawn of a new day.

新一天的曙光

I just drank some coffee.

我剛喝了點咖啡。

I'm revved up.

我很興奮

Maybe a little bit anxious.

也許有點焦慮。

Sit down at my desk and I wonder, what should I study today?

坐在書桌前，我在想，今天該學些什麼呢？

I'm going to go with W in the framework, which is weakest topic first.

我打算先從框架中最薄弱的 W 開始。

I'm going to take a look at everything I have here.

我要看看我這裡的一切。

The weakest topics are the ones that are in red.

最薄弱的題目是紅色的題目。

And the ones that I should prioritize are the ones that I haven't looked at in the longest time.

而我應該優先考慮的，是那些我已經很久沒有看的東西。

It's going to be neck muscles, which I would look at first.

我會先檢查頸部肌肉。

And if I still have time, I'm going to hit abs and then we're going to hit legs because we don't skip leg day, right?

如果我還有時間，我會先練腹肌，然後再練腿，因為我們每天都要練腿，對嗎？

So as I review my weakest topics, I'm once again going to color code them using the rating system.

是以，當我回顧我最薄弱的主題時，我將再次使用評級系統對它們進行顏色編碼。

And let's say that all of these were a little bit better.

假設所有這些都好一點。

So we're going to be yellow.

所以，我們將是黃色的。

And then I'm just going to continue this process, right?

然後我就繼續這個過程，對嗎？

And look, we're getting to the point now where they're all turning green.

你看，現在它們都變成綠色了。

Cool.

酷斃了

But that doesn't mean I should stop studying, right?

但這並不意味著我應該停止學習，對嗎？

Because if my exam is next week, I still want to have these fresh on my mind.

因為如果我的考試是在下週，我還是希望這些內容能讓我記憶猶新。

Weakest topic just ends up being the last one that I reviewed.

最薄弱的題目就是我審查的最後一個題目。

So, for example, if I was going to continue studying for anatomy to keep it fresh before my exam, the weakest topic would now be the sitz muscles, because this was the longest ago that I reviewed.

是以，舉例來說，如果我要繼續學習解剖學，以便在考試前保持新鮮感，那麼現在最薄弱的題目就是坐骨神經肌，因為這是我複習時間最長的題目。

And what's cool about the growth system is that it's adaptable, right?

增長系統最酷的地方在於它的適應性，對嗎？

It changes with how confident we are.

它隨著我們的自信程度而變化。

So because I didn't look at the sitz muscles for almost a week, maybe today, as I reviewed it, I actually felt less confident than I thought I did.

是以，由於我將近一個星期沒有看坐骨神經，也許是今天，當我回顧它時，我實際上比我想象的更沒有信心。

So just because it was green once doesn't mean it can't go back to yellow or doesn't mean it can't go back to red, right?

所以，曾經是綠色並不意味著不能變回黃色，也不意味著不能變回紅色，對嗎？

Because our confidence changes as time goes on.

因為隨著時間的推移，我們的信心會發生變化。

Maybe we learn some new information.

也許我們會了解到一些新資訊。

Maybe we do some practice problems and realize that, oh, maybe I didn't really understand abdominal cavity or brachial plexus as well as I thought.

也許我們做了一些練習題後會發現，哦，也許我對腹腔或臂叢神經的理解並沒有我想象的那麼透徹。

And I can change the confidence rating system accordingly.

我可以相應地更改信心評級系統。

But yep, this way, I always know what I need to be studying each time I sit down because I have the grow system in place.

但是，這樣一來，我每次坐下來都能知道我需要學習什麼，因為我已經建立了成長系統。

But seriously, we don't need super fancy tech to schedule our reviews.

不過說真的，我們並不需要超級先進的技術來安排我們的評論。

We keep it simple using Notion.

我們使用 Notion 保持簡單。

You can keep track of all your classes, track your confidence levels with each topic if you're a rookie or you're a ranger.

您可以跟蹤所有課程，跟蹤您對每個主題的信心水準，無論您是新手還是遊俠。

And you know exactly what you need to study next.

你也很清楚接下來需要學習什麼。
