vaguely academic things to do to keep yourself entertained
go down a wikipedia research hole by clicking the first term you donโt understand
binge a crashcourse series end to end (personal recs: world history, history of science, big history, philosophy)
find free books on project gutenberg
download some western classics for free
borrow books and audiobooks from the libby appย or borrowbox
take a khan academy course
browse MITโs free online course materials
go on aย google scholar essay dive
try the open access button to avoid some paywalls for academic media, or install unpaywallย that does a similar thing
research the history of the place you where you live
tempt the wrath of the duolingoย owl and learn a language
search for online streams of the local tv in your target languageโs country and use as background noise for immersion points
print and scrapbook favourite poetry and literature quotes
improve your handwriting by doing handwriting exercises
learn philosophy with the philosophize this! podcast. actually just check out all the educational spotify podcasts there are many good ones
start a weekly club with friends to share new and interesting things youโve learnt that week
clean and reorganise your study space, physical or digital
fave educational youtube channels that I adore:ย vsauce, crashcourse,ย smarter every day,ย kurzgesagt, school of life, tom scott, r. c. waldun, vsauce3, primer, mark rober, veritasium, asapSCIENCE, scishow, TED-ed
hopefully youโll find something to enjoy! happy learning x
