Learning Process.

The best way to learn is to exhaust yourself with your prefered style of learning, then switch to another "style" to pull yourself out of the crater and to the edge of developing different opinions based on a new perspective.

]]> ]]> My thoughts on the course were that, early on one must keep the enthusiasm for the material and enthusiasm for the students on a balanced focus, which means smooth sailing. Being excited about a course makes sharing it easy and great teaching is clear sharing of interesting content. That is an emotional key to the memory. When fully immersed in a subject, with clear details of how a concept lives and breathes, the memory solidifies an emotional thread to the information. I think that confidence is reinforced by replaying that emotional connection to the information that was presented so thoughtfully in multimedia, print audio and visually and graphicly. so diversity in approach can reinforce memory retention. The course just refreshed all those common sense techniques that work to build success in the classsroom.
