learning by doing



There is really only one way to learn how to do something and that is to do it. If you want to learn to throw a football, drive a car, build a mousetrap, design a building, cook a stir-fry, or be a management consultant, you must have a go at doing it. Throughout history, youths have been apprenticed to masters in order to learn a trade. We understand that learning a skill means eventually trying your hand at the skill. When there is no real harm in simply trying we allow novices to "give it a shot."

Parents usually teach children in this way. They don't give a series of lectures to their children to prepare them to walk, talk, climb, run, play a game, or learn how to behave. They just let their children do these things. We hand a child a ball to teach him to throw. If he throws poorly, he simply tries again. Parents tolerate sitting in the passenger seat while their teenager tries out the driver's seat for the first time. It's nerve-wracking, but parents put up with it, because they know there's no better way.

When it comes to school, however, instead of allowing students to learn by doing, we create courses of instruction that tell students about the theory of the task without concentrating on the doing of the task. It's not easy to see how to apply apprenticeship to mass education. So in its place, we lecture.

There are better alternatives to teaching people of all ages new things. Here are three efforts headed by Roger Schank that are all based on the learn by doing approach.

i agree with her

I believe that I guide my students, I also believe that they guide me through the observations and perspectives they bring to class.    The term "guidance" best describes my philosophy of teaching.

I am a beliver in problem solving and learning by doing specially when it comes to any practical subjects.

Both problem solving and learning by doing are best practiced through integrated projects and guided practice.

amnesia


SO when talk about this topic, i always have a lot to say... 
i am a forgetful guy and put things in some strange places, for example i put my book in my drawer for clothes, so no matter how hard i will never find  my book in my book shelf or backpeck.
how to deal with this problem?
every time you lost something, and you found it, like before, it ended and you came back to your normal life. then you lost it again(here "lost" means you forget where you put something), you still had to cost a lot of time in looking for your stuff. But now everything will change by my opinion, i think the behavior, you put something in somewhere you could't remember, is a subsciousness, and samply speaking it calls habbits. we could use the statistic method to work out this kind of prob, i mean everytime after you finding the stuff you lost, what you do is just take a pen and  a booklet to write down where you find it, every month(the interval  time depends on the frequency of losing things)you should make a breif sumerization, every 3 month you should make a media one, and when it come to a year you will see the annual top places where you put things and then you forget... and you can put it on internet and be illustrated with some pictures.

a protection for your ipod headphone


One of the most aweful things in my life is that the headphone for my ipod always broke down within two months, then i have to change it with a new one which will cost me about $US50, that is a quite huge number of money for a college student to buy a headphone.

However, Manaen is Manaen, there's always some ideas coming up in his mind at a right time.
So do you know uterus in women's abdomen, and when a woman is pregant, a great and magic change will happen in the uterus, maybe in one month a amniotic cavity,which is a cavity protecting the infant from being impacted by something external, will be built in it. But how does it work? the work by God's hand is that the whole cavity which is insulated from outside filled with water in which the infant is living within about 40 months. That is such effective protective system which to a large extent give an infant a security guarantee.

just like the amniotic cavity, i used a sealable fresh-keeping bag to charge my ipod with its headphone, and the most important thing i want to point out is when you make this protective system, you should keep some air in the bag before sealing. that is just like the water, more precise that is amniotic fluid. they share the identical function

learning in misunderstanding

In normal logical, most of us will think only if you have understood what you learn, you can utilize them. So understanding, or we say comprehension, is the most important thing in the teaching method, a lot of teachers and professors are concerned that memorization is just based on the understanding, not rote learning. However, on the other hand, maybe in some designal and innovational field, learning by misunderstand is probably a better way for who are designors to find a new thought and to creat a thing, but how you can learn something or even get a intuition from misunderstanding? Ok, let me tell you what i am thinking. that is a example which i was undergone, First i was looking at a picture, and some creative thoughts was come up into my mind, that moment i was not know the specific use of the device in the picture(because i didn't read the words below the picture). After reading the intruduction of the picture, i really astonished. Because the author's intentions of the device was extremly distinguished from mine, but the picture was stimulate my brain to link to something else, fortunately, the thoughts in my mind was even better than the auther's. So then i got a patent from a misunderstanding, that is my story. i think that still will be happen on you, so enjoy thinking. To one stuff, each person can have a very dependent thought which can lead to a obviously different idea of it, so that is creative.

After skull fracture



A skull fracture is a fracture or break in the cranial (skull) bones.
If it is not a simple skull fracture but a depressd skull fracture,
it need to have a skull operation.
And after the skull operation, a part of the skull (broken)-a fragment will be taken away,
and in a period of time, the repair surgery will be conducted.

Therefore, in the interval time, the patient have a whole in his skull.
that means a part of brain is contacting with external atmosphere just isolated by headskin

so i think a protector for skull fracture should be design.....
