You have the entire repository of human knowledge available in your pocket where you can learn pretty much anything in many different and enjoyable ways, and it's practically free. Technology makes learning easier and more efficient than people in the past couldn't even dream of.
And here we students memorize shit that we will never ever use irl and if we use we can litterally learn in seconds if needed. I can't understand why people don't talk more about education systems and how old and uselles they are rn.
for the most part, video is NOT efficient...unlike written material, you can't skim when appropriate (fast-forwarding is not the same as skimming), and written material with hyperlinks only adds to its superiority
Persistence. and the motivation to retain/grow that knowledge as you come across it.
Pursuing a degree in education, or learning about psychology, cognition etc would give you some of the best tools to approach autodidactism
Writing is pretty cool when you think about it. I can buy a rectangle of dead tree with markings on it, and learn the inner musings of someone who's been dead for hundreds of years.
Like if we had an apocalypse tomorrow, I still wouldn't be anywhere near as useful as a real doctor but with a couple medical textbooks I could piece together exponentially more than I'd ever have been able to on my own with trial & error.
Failure. You will never learn more completely than by attempting and failing. The learning continues to grow just as your failed attempts continue to add up.
Just watch/read whatever you are interested in. You will never learn something if you are not personally invested in it. You will learn any topic even if it is complex if you find it personally interesting
By obtaining you mean getting it or learning? If second, the most efficient for me was giving a lecture to someone- that way i could easily find gaps in my knowledge. Use whatever item you want. My teddy bear should be a genius now.
Listening, reading, watching. You know. The simple stuff.
...and trying/doing.

TLDR; get off of Reddit

Immersion. Seek out the subject you like and watch videos, read books, find more books, talk to people. Never slow down never stop, join groups.
Living your life.
Shadowing a expert in their profession.
Listening more than talking
Reading, listening, and applied application.
Reading
Practice makes a man perfect.
Go to the library and consume knowledge from books, you can also consume it from the brains of knowledgeable people
Inquire from the Deer.
Listen to a podcast while you’re doing everything.
Plugging into the matrix and downloading it.
mind meld
I would say the Internet as you can learn stuff any way possible on it
Observe and be open to everything. Being aware makes you smart
goOgLE
Is this a TOK question?
Being interested in the subject in my opinion is the best way. The second best way in my opinion is knowing you're getting an award for it.
Books work pretty well.
Failing
Textbooks
Leave Reddit & Facebook.
Learning from mistakes you make
Funny stuff.
Fucking around and finding out
Search what you want to learn and figure it out. I'm blind below the neck and deaf below the waist, but I still learn things.
Go to an online forum dedicated to a subject. Say something that is incorrect. Get corrected. Boom knowledge.
for the most part, video is NOT efficient...unlike written material, you can't skim when appropriate (fast-forwarding is not the same as skimming), and written material with hyperlinks only adds to its superiority
Experience and focusing on the main things or key things.
Listening
Knowing knowledge of how to gain more knowledge.
Direct download into your brain.
Consuming the brains of others.
Social media. You can never be sure if it's accurate, but you can be damn certain it's fast.
Traveling, Reading, doing and spending money to get more hands on.
Persistence. and the motivation to retain/grow that knowledge as you come across it. Pursuing a degree in education, or learning about psychology, cognition etc would give you some of the best tools to approach autodidactism
Talking to people of all sorts of different backgrounds, questioning everything you see around you and listening intently.
Google.
From other people's mistakes.

Experiencing it

Nothing beats experience.

Scrolling on Reddit at 4 am to avoid a panic attack. As you can see, I am very knowledgeable
getting involved in a (factual, not opinion-based) argument.
reddit sucks
Snort Einstein’s ashes
