Successful Education- Rule 2

Monday, May 19th, 2008

It is very important to review my rule 1 to proceed with the next step – rule 2. The deal is without curiosity there will be no sense in your education.

And by the way, sense is the leading factor also. That sense should be concealed in whatever in your study. And you should realize that. On its disappearing you may lose the whole understanding that leads to confusion.

A real problem for any student is a volume of necessary reading. Almost all the written texts are not appropriate with their relation to the memory process. It is usually hard to revise all the read text at the end.

You should think of the text like about someone’s idea presented in an attempt to express it.

The world around us is made of various relationships and certain interdependent items. We understand the reality from this very point of view. We construct some rules according to our experience to make sense out of different situations. But we cannot find these rules in the texts.

For understanding we should bound some unknown to already explored notion.

Thus you create new relationships between some items.

The process of contextualizing helps to understand the reality. It means you need to place the received learning into a context.

Our mind is designed like an operation system so some scholars advise to use mind maps (found by Tony Buzan) and diagrams for visual relationships. Each map may be individual. Using color pens may be of great use for matching this or that relates on the map.

But remember that every map is just a device for better memorizing rather than the knowledge itself. It is just for your convenience in study.

And feel free in changing your map. The earlier you start the sooner you get the results. Good luck!

Formula of University Success – Rule 1

Monday, May 19th, 2008

“Work hard” is not the proper inspiration for my topic above. It is of university truth although but is not the only and definite constituent of a great success.
Lots of your fellow students work as hard as for four people but result in no triumph.

To my theory there are two kinds of learners and you can do nothing but appear to be one of them.

So they are:

* So interested in a subject and fill like a fish in the water studying it, or

* You are not worried about that at all

One may start to tell fairy tales about really anxiety for study when the truth appears to be vise versa. No. My personal belief is that you either learn day and nights or give a damn at all the education.

Curiosity isn’t something you were born with. It is something you can learn to switch on like a light bulb. Imagine what it would be like to know something so well that there wasn’t a question that you couldn’t answer. Imagine going in to an exam without a worry. Imagine what it would be like to have so much confidence that you ‘know’ there is no question that that you couldn’t answer. You can have all this if you are curious enough.

So what is of crucial importance that is curiosity.

Without this feature it is hard to get an easy understanding. In this way one may just collect some fragments of information in an indefinite puzzle.

Any prominent celebrity was driven by this feeling of curiosity. That is why for them it was an easy deal to achieve their objectives. The curiosity made them learn thing deeply.
As the conclusion we may state that some people may possess knowledge but lack of its understanding. The latter is bound to a numerous questions to be answered but not ignored because are not in the subject matter. Go to the end of your curiosity!
