Build your application with new tech you just learn
One of the best ways to understand the new tech is to practice it.
Try to build a simple application when started to learn new things. And when you get more used to it, digging around some advanced ways, trying some different approaches outside of the document, and playing around with things you have learned then you achieve more knowledge about the new tech than ever.
Join tech communities
With develop of social networks, it is not hard to find a group of people who have the same interest in the tech that you want to learn. For example, you can easily find a lot of React groups on Facebook, Twitter, or Medium.
Find and join them, digging for group topics and you can have a lot of knowledge from there. (also lot of new friends 😉)
Communities are also a great place for questions/answers if you got something stuck on your learning path and need some help.
Take note of everything you learned
Make documents every time you had a chance to learn new things.
Take good and careful notes to show that you have a full understanding of the concept and behavior of the tech you learn. This is also a good approach for finding where to remind in case you forget anything.
