In a recent interview, the United States’ foremost educational historian Diane Ravitch told Big Think what really matters when it comes to learning, inside schools and out. Contrary to conventional wisdom, she says, it's not K-12 teachers who are most responsible for kids' progress -- ages 0-5 are s...
Most students attempt to learn by reading and re-reading material, only to be disappointed later by how little they actually learned. To learn from reading, students must do more than just passively read. What's missing between reading and learning is thinking. We learn best when we think about what we're reading. The quality of that thinking, in turn, is determined by the quality of the key questions we ask and attempt to answer as we're reading. When we're not asking key questions, our mind wanders, our thoughts scatter, and we can't identify key concepts essential to our understanding of the subject material.

In our information-based society, the ability to handle large amounts of complex information is extremely important. Visual mapping helps collect, manage, and share information from one or more sources in a comprehensive, meaningful, and clear manner.
Mind maps are used by STUDENTS and TEACHERS in variety of ways, including for note taking, as a one-place repository of information and resources, for holistic integration of information and knowledge, as personal dashboards to manage tasks and goals, for exam preparation and review, for improved memory and recall, to improve thinking, to increase creativity, for problem solving, decision making, action taking, for collaboration and discussions, and self-directed learning.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Although this book is primarily aimed at teachers, it is a very informative book for anyone who wants to learn about learning and thinking. Washburn begins by outlining the five building blocks of learning: experience (encountering raw data), comprehension (sorting and organizing raw data), elaboration (examining organized data for patterns and connecting new data to past experiences), application (practicing within the classroom), and intention (practicing outside the classroom). For teachers to properly teach and for students to learn, their learning should progress through all these blocks so that there is a transition from data to knowledge to understanding, and ultimately, to utility… Read moreTriiibes
