二 summary & thoughts
第九章的主題是“用刻意練習(xí)創(chuàng)造全新的世界”
改變教育與學(xué)習(xí)
英屬哥倫比亞大學(xué)的三位研究人員運(yùn)用刻意練習(xí)原因做了一個(gè)物理教學(xué)的實(shí)驗(yàn):一組是傳統(tǒng)教學(xué)的對(duì)照組,另一組通過在課堂上提問和老師解答的方式,讓學(xué)生學(xué)會(huì)主動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)疙教。測試結(jié)果顯示梳杏,一周時(shí)間里韧拒,改進(jìn)組的學(xué)生掌握的物理知識(shí)量是普通對(duì)照組的 2.5 倍淹接。
幾乎在每一個(gè)教育領(lǐng)域,最有益的學(xué)習(xí)目標(biāo)都是那些幫助學(xué)生創(chuàng)建有效心理表征的目標(biāo)叛溢。
當(dāng)今的社會(huì)是一個(gè)知識(shí)快速更新的社會(huì)塑悼,隨之,我們需要掌握的技能也就越來越多楷掉。而刻意學(xué)習(xí)的方法無疑給我們提供了信心厢蒜。這個(gè)方法幾乎可以應(yīng)用在所有我們所以要學(xué)習(xí)的領(lǐng)域。
