1. Simplicity
In their book Six Easy Pieces: Essentials of Physics Explained by Its Most Brilliant Teacher by Feynman, Leighton and Sands, his two co-authors from Caltech attribute a very interesting piece to Richard Feynman.
Feynman was once asked by a Caltech faculty member to explain why spin-1/2 particles obey Fermi-Dirac statistics. He gauged his audience perfectly and said, “I’ll prepare a freshman lecture on it.” But a few days later he returned and said, “You know, I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t reduce it to the freshman level. That means we really don’t understand it.”
In this training, while the level of the technical material itself is high, it will be delivered from a simpler freshman-like perspective (unless, of course, an expert audience wants the most amount of knowledge in the least amount of time).
2. Visualization
According to the scientists, a great advancement in human civilization occurred when humans began to understand the maps. Every single person in the world sees the same view from their eyes that makes images a natural medium of communication. On the other hand, in my opinion, language is an unnatural mode of communication and that is why there are so many different languages in the world.
This difference is more visible when we consider that humans have a tendency to forget words but it is very difficult to forget an image. The storage capacity and recall mechanism in the brain are quite different for these two cases.
For example, with the help of the figure on Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) below, the audience can actually locate their 1s and 0s in the air which greatly amplifies the understanding of modulation.
3. Connection
In a traditional approach, technical description of a concept must be boring and mechanical. To engage the audience, it is valuable to connect it with something they already know.
For example, the process of polyphase partition of an original lowpass filter is depicted in the figure below in a manner that the loading of zero input samples can easily be likened to dropping the yellow-coloured discs in a CONNECT4 game.
