Note sull'episodio

When your class has no homework and no structure, passive studying isn’t enough.

In this short segment from the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renee Jordan shares a powerful DIY learning strategy for students navigating challenging STEM and technical courses: your hand has a memory.

Instead of just reading, highlighting, or watching solution videos, this episode introduces a diagram-first, write-it-out method that helps you see how systems work—whether you’re studying biology, coding, engineering, or data concepts.

You’ll learn:

  • Why drawing processes strengthens memory and understanding
  • How to turn diagrams into self-designed homework
  • Why mistakes on paper are part of real learning (don’t erase them!)
  • How to study with intention when professors don’t provide a roadmap

This segment is especially for students who are creative, visual learners—but expected to perform at a high academic level without much guidance.

DIY takeaway: If you can draw it, label it, and explain it—you know it.

Listen, try it this week, and take control of your learning.
