Become a super learner, you need to master these 4 methods

Imagine that one of your friends ask you to ask you something that you are very good at. He knows nothing about this and needs you to teach. What will you do about this?

In fact, most of us prefer to be students and learn from others, not good at teaching. But if you can look at knowledge from the perspective of the teacher and successfully convey your knowledge to others, it will be more helpful to sort out and absorb knowledge.

In middle school or university, you may have encountered some very favorite teachers. So what makes them so effective in teaching knowledge?

Today, Zhanlujun recommends 4 teaching methods for you to help you can better absorb and understand knowledge, complete upgrading to others, and become a super learner.

01

Constructionist teaching method

Teaching is essentially a dialogue. In this dialogue, the new information was passed on to students who did not master them. The teaching method you adopt depends on how you view students, teachers, teachers and students, information, and knowledge transmission rules.

To teach others what you have, you can start with the knowledge they have understood, and then build new knowledge a little bit. For example, you first talk about a basic principle, or use their known conceptual knowledge to expand and introduce new knowledge, and then set a problem solving task to allow them to participate in it, and then strengthen the learning of new knowledge.

As a teacher, your role is actually a useful "obstacle" course for "students" to allow them to learn new knowledge in the process of eliminating obstacles or solving problems. This method is called constructivism teaching method.

This is a good way to explain complex concepts. It is effective because it builds these complex concepts from smaller and simpler concepts. When your student has this method, you will continue to learn in a structured way. For example, the learning of musical instruments: first master the scales, learn the reading of music scores and the basic operation of musical instruments, and then combine increasingly complex skills.

However, a disadvantage of constructivism teaching is that it is generally presented in a separate and non -systematic form. This makes it difficult for some people to establish contact between different concepts, resulting in poor learning.

As a student, they need a systematic teaching method. They also hope that the teacher will accurately tell themselves how to think and understand a certain concept, instead of unwilling to build their own understanding of the concept.

At this time, you can adopt another method -comprehensive teaching method.

02

Comprehensive teaching method

Have you ever thought about when you were sitting in the classroom, "What is the meaning of all this?" Because you don't understand how to apply these classroom knowledge to the real world.

If your teacher adopted a comprehensive teaching method at the time, that is, to teach new knowledge for the purpose of being able to achieve practical or application, maybe you won't think so.

For example, foreign language teachers let children play some scenarios they may encounter in other countries through role -playing, such as ordering in restaurants.

This method works well because it places boring and abstract knowledge in a specific environment to make it vivid. If we can understand the meaning of a lesson as a student and its actual role in real life, then we are more likely to be inspired and actively participated.

This may explain why you have forgotten all the triangle functions learned in high school, because you never need to apply this knowledge in daily life! Of course, it is also possible that these knowledge is more suitable for adopting comprehensive teaching methods but not adopted.

This may show that those teachers you like very much may be people who use this method, and they will work hard to make boring courses cut topics, keep pace with the times and lively and interesting.

03

Collaborative teaching method

Recall that when you were in school, no teacher often said: "Now divided into four people." Some people hate group cooperation when they were in school, but the teacher always had sufficient reasons to use collaboration in class or outside the classroom. Formation teaching method. The collaboration is the process of using team cooperation in the group to share the learning process.

Some educational researchers have found that when people do something together, their learning ability will be improved. Because human beings are social creatures, compared with themselves sitting down quietly, they explain, exchanged, negotiated, clarify, and even controversy their topics can make the topic clearer.

Through cooperation, teachers can let other students act as cooperative teachers. Group cooperation can ensure that each member in the group can exert its own advantages and show their skills. Therefore, each member can help others in some aspects, or to get the help of other members in the weak aspects of their own aspects. and support.

In the group cooperation, each member is self -correction and improvement. At this time, the overall force is greater than the sum of part of the force.

This method is also applicable outside the class, and many people often use this method when teaching. For example, new employees do not operate the machine, and the manager may allow a slightly experienced employee to train new employees under his supervision, then this experienced employee can consolidate their knowledge while teaching others.

Compared with the manager, these experienced employees have more contact with new employees to some extent. At the same time, they will think of the feeling when they do not operate the machine, and they can better understand the dilemma of new employees. Managers can use this to complete the training of new employees through the process of natural sharing of knowledge.

04

Inquiry teaching method

Another efficient method is to explore inquiry teaching. As the name suggests, this method takes the problem as the core of the learning process. When we think about a question, we will ask: What is this? How does it work? Why did X, Y, Z? What will happen next? How can I get from A to B? This is how to learn naturally in our minds.

This inquiry method plays a role in raising questions, finding answers, and between the two.

For example, when you click "Confirm inquiry", the page shows the method, answer, and the method of answering the answer, which shows the entire operation process to the students.

Open inquiry is the foundation of educational methods such as Montessori. In this method, students of different ages are divided into a group. They can learn anything they want to learn. At the same time, they can ask relevant questions according to their own interests, and then find ways to answer these questions themselves.

Similarly, you can also give them three books when guiding friends, so that they can design a problem that they think they can dig the core content of these three books best, which will not only promote them to find a solution to the problem, but also make them allow them to solve the problem. They thought independently and asked questions from the beginning.

There are many benefits to explore teaching methods. For example, it can stimulate people's curiosity, but it also has some shortcomings. One of the biggest disadvantages is that it is difficult for teachers to use explore teaching methods to prepare a lesson. In order to teach a concept, the teacher needs to design a series of questions and answers, which requires more effort than other methods to teach.

You may have such a question: Can these methods be mixed? The answer is yes. In fact, this involves the last teaching method -reflection of teaching methods, which will regularly reflect on the center of learning.

05

Reflection teaching

Although the above methods have its value, if you do not think about it, you can use them without proper circumstances, and any method will not work. Therefore, the teaching method requires the teacher to stop regularly to evaluate whether there is a deviation in the teaching method used and make corresponding adjustments.

Teachers need to reflect often: What I do now is to make children learn better? Is it serving the teaching content? why is it like this? Why not? What is better to do?

Novice teachers are often encouraged to reflect on reflection, because as a teacher, first of all, they should know what is effective, what is invalid, and the cause of the final result. This method emphasizes an important principle: the essence of teaching lies in practicality. There are not too difficult questions, and there are no students who are too stupid. There are only inappropriate methods.

When you reflect, you remind yourself that teaching is just a tool. You can and should try to achieve the final goal in different ways, which will prompt you to continue to try. But like an inquiry teaching method, it requires teachers to pay a lot of time and mind design teaching solutions for new teaching methods.

Education, teaching, and teaching methods need to be studied deeper. Without a doctoral degree or certificate, it does not mean that you cannot be effectively taught.

How to keep children and students' initiative and continue to learn more. Improve your learning skills and the ability to guide others to learn, and help you increase your personal influence.
