Today’s discussion has made me more open to trying new study methods because i can be stuck in one studying mindset.

2025-09-16 15:53:31 UTC

2025-09-16 15:54:56 UTC

I need to get a study style that works better with my focusing issues. Instead of trying to finish everything at once. I will try making concept maps to help me have a way to work on certain sub topics at a time instead of overwhelming myself.

Made me actually understand how different studying technicaques can help

How are experiences connected to learning?

vem4r — 2025-11-11 16:48:35 UTC

2025-11-11 17:04:11 UTC

you learn from new experiences every time

2025-11-11 17:04:14 UTC

Our experiences help us better live and remember those moments to better understand what we are learning

2025-11-11 17:04:32 UTC

Your body and mind will forget things it doesn’t deem useful so putting stuff into action will allow your body to ingrain that into itself

2025-11-11 17:04:32 UTC

Experiencing something first hand gives you the knowledge of what the task requires and gives you an insight into how to better accomplish it next time.

2025-11-11 17:04:39 UTC

You learn how to navigate through what you have learned

2025-11-11 17:04:42 UTC
