Now, it's all under the notebook umbrella. Seems to be appropriate as it is just my notes after all. I also updated some notes from there. I didn't keep track of what it is this time. Something about more learning notes extracted from my "Learning how to learn" course notes and then some. Lack of time and hurriness just makes it difficult to track but it should be under version control already.

Pitfalls and illusions of competence
The learning process is not perfect and just like everything else in life, there are some traps that you could step in. This could cost you either time or forming bad habits that require unlearning later.
The following is an exhaustive list of things to look out for.
- The Presence of the material fools students into learning.
- Procrastination is a common habitual problem among students, postponing their learning and leading into cramming.
- Overlearning is a habitual problem of students, thinking they should master the concept holistically before moving on to other topics.
- Tunnel vision: learning new things can be impeded from our own experience.
-
Working with solutions can be a trap if you focus solely on the steps.
- Solution: give time to focus on the bigger picture.
- Inversely, understanding without the memorization is still bad as Understanding comes first from memory.
