As a subscriber to the Farnam Street newsletter, I enjoy reading Shane’s articles about using various mental models from other disciplines to improve our decision-making. Reading about these mental models is fun, but I am cognizant of the fact that reading about them did not equate to learning them. I have been using Anki flashcards in language-learning and technical contexts for a few years now. So the question is: what is the best way to use Anki to facilitate learning mental models?
