he's doing it to help students make associations with unfamiliar stimuli, and increase their memory retention and understanding

you still do it even now with virtually everything you learned as a child and did not reinforce or relearn as an adult, but usually its subconscious.

Analogies are the crutch of the mentally deficient. And, they are fucking terrible. The worst offender is the water analogy for explaining electricity.

Brb I'm gonna go "eat" a covector that "lives" in the tangent space. Also, bonding happens because of "happy" electrons.

Visualization is the key to quickly memorizing complex concepts.

Why am I the only one who has no fucking idea what you're all talking about?

just let them be happy, you privileged fuck
not everyone gets to be born three-dimensional

>>8037421
It doesn't increase anything. The difference is literally nil between how I think about "kills" and "annihilates". Same goes for the rest of this retarded shit such as "eats".

>>8037426
Lol, maybe one day you'll see how fucking bogus most "studies" are and you'll stop treating them as gospel. I'm just here giving my opinion anyway, you dumb cunt. if you only want to read things that are peer-reviewed, you can fuck off from 4chan anytime.

>>8037858
Tell that to Grothendieck. The analogy was pretty much his favorite thing ever.

Hahaha, everyone laugh at this faggot

>>8039483
while most of the analogies here are forgivable and even somewhat useful, calling a mathematical object "good" is the worst thing on earth

a good quotient, or a good algebra or group action or whatever, varies so much even within one context that it's a useless word. in research the "good" setting is often constant enough to refer to it as such, but in education the mathematical setting changes often enough to need explanation.

Guess Feynman had learning difficulties then

Lol get out

He was a physicist, they're all idiots.

I'd venture to guess that Feynman has achieved more than you ever will in your lifetime.

What have you contributed to society beyond insults?

hue

this is the part where we forget that we are just iqtest.com brainlets and criticise mental titans of science from our comfy anon computer chairs

Literally everything you think about is some form of analogy when you really break it down. Brainlet pleb detected.

They're terms that people have been using for decades because they describe how the speaker thinks about what's happening.

The world does not revolve around you.
