I was surprised to see the ability of classmates to parse out these topics and contribute to the conversation. I was pleasantly surprised to be working in a class face to face after a couple of years attending classes as a distance learner.
Below is what I have from my notes. I do think as I progress through the course tips will be a bit like magic tricks on how to help others to learn or share knowledge. I found it interesting to follow the key people and a the timeline for how and when these processes developed.
What is: Learning, Knowing, Teaching?
·
Learning for me is the process that enables me
to understand. I am an inquisitive
person and have always enjoyed learning how to do something and maybe how to do
it better. Also just learning about things, people, and places. I like to learn
about history and understand how I can benefit from others.
·
Knowing to me is when I understand something so
that it is clear in my mind and that I could potentially share with us. Knowing
helps me to make decisions on what to do or maybe not to do. Knowing is the sum
of my learning.
·
Teaching is sharing what I know that I have
learned with others. Teaching is not just
in a class room it can and does happen anywhere. It is amazing how you
can teach without words and by example or using very complex explanations. I
think teaching is a skill and an art they we
can learn from others or develop our own techniques. It give great
satisfaction to share something with others and realize how this can help
everyone to benefit from knowledge learned over time.
