If only I could be that productive during quarantine...
How helpful do you find working ahead? I'm just following my teacher's pace atm but I know a lot of people in my cohort are up to unit 4 already and it's making me kinda stressed rippp.
Hey milanander!
For me personally, I learn ahead just because I actually love learning about Physics. I really like the conceptual and experimental part of this subject, and I would rather have class discussions about the limitations of the new concepts rather than learning new material for the first time? (I hope that makes sense).
Learning at the same pace as the teacher is 100% ok
, just so long as you are engaging with what they are talking about (I struggled to engage properly when I don't know the content which is why I like to learn the basics when I have time). It's probably personal choice in the end and what makes you feel the most comfortable in the classroom.
Hope that helps!
