Our research team adopted the Feynman technique for explaining our findings to each other, but the senior researchers keep using it as a way to test the junior members rather than genuinely exploring what we all understand. The technique has become a performance of knowledge rather than a tool for discovering what we don't actually grasp about our own work.
More people experience this than they realize.
When explanation becomes evaluation, the technique shifts from revealing ignorance to performing competence, defeating its essential purpose.
