Several commenters have mentioned 3B1B and other youtube videos. I'm curious about the suggested ordering: should one watch the videos to get an intuitive sense of things, then proceed with a textbook/practice questions? Or would it be better to struggle through a textbook/problems, and then watch videos to crystalize concepts after you've primed your brain a bit?
I realize the answers will differ for different people/situations, but I'd be curious to know what has or hasn't worked for others.
- rramadass 4y agoVideos and Books are Orthogonal. You switch as needed to reinforce understanding. That said, i always start with a book since they tend to be comprehensive and allow me to study at my own pace. They force me to imagine and think which i don't get from any video (which is spoon-feeding at the author's pace).
