What is the fastest ways for you to memorize or understand certain concepts in electrical and computer engineering?
This includes coding, network structures, types of terms that relates to its concepts, etc.
Please explain your phases, when you start studying, and please be based on your experiences, please do not just answer it in vague ways, please be specific (time of your studying, how do you memorize important terms and concepts, etc)
>>>>> Start with the very basics…. Go get some graph paper and a bunch of pencils, ideally a couple colors. Now either go online and google “simple cicuits” or go to your local home improvement store and look for a “do it yourself” book on home wiring. Draw circuits! Make notes of the different components, see if you can find the actual devices in photos online or in real life at your local home improvement or electronics shop (should you be lucky enough to have one nearby). Use colored pencils or even crayons to show voltages and currents as you discover them, highlight the concepts so you can ask about them.
With only the investment of your time, some paper and pencils, and access to some stores or library internet searches, you can get a feel for the very basics of electricity, electrical engineering, and whether you feel the love to continue your efforts.
I would recommend staying away (contrary to all common guidance) from the more challenging math and physics when starting out… you WILL need these later, but for now, just develop the desire and curiosity! If you can, try to find electrical things people are throwing away for some reason, and take them apart! No pressure to debug and fix them, but giant feelings of accomplishment come from bringing things to life…. This feeling is what makes Electrical Engineers get out of bed in the morning, find that fire and feed it!
>>>>> Now come to the coding. Basically two type of coding one is system coding (Generally known as embedded System coding) another is application coding Like one application run on OS like any software VLC player, Google Chrome etc. it depands only on your area of intererst. So choose and try to do. There is only one way to to learn coding study and do, learn and do. It is possible you will face failaure in your objective for example if you decide to make a system which can automate your home electrical system generally we can say home automation. Your can face failaure.It totally depends on you will power. How do you think about your objective. So learn basic things and start doing.
>>>>> My experience was good to learn Electrical and Electronics Engineering and coding as well. I started with the basic C. Always remember go with the standard books. Try to undersand the basics how the system works. try to understand those systems which are generally used by you in your home like Washing machine , Fan, AC , Cooler or other systems. When I started to learn coding i was blank neither i awared of any computer language nor any system's working. But i had decided to learn those things So i started. Now a days i can do lot of works like syatem design, application based system design etc. Remember one thing do not affraid to failure. It is totally depends on you which time is taken by you while you are studying the same. I took 5 years almost to learn.there are lot of things which is not known by me but i am still learning and doing. When you choose only one side of your like Coding or hardware designing you should keep the same intention to learn after your learning phase too.
>>>>> When you are facing problem to learn important things try to understand by visually and match it with your surrounding system and try to understand its working and think if you will do the same what will the way of your working.
By the way start learn and do from now you can get success soon.
