Compound Learning


Compound Learning


I think I want to learn something, so I pull up a You Tube Video
 and play it, while doing nothing else.

Overview
  1. Watch and listen to the video (questions? If no, stop here. If yes, continue)
Visual
  1. Turn off the sound and watch the video (questions?)
Audible
  1. Close my eyes and listen to the video (questions?)                                                                                                                                                                            
Contemplation
  1. Turn off the video and think about the video (questions?)                                                                        
Utilization
  1. Apply the content of the video to the creation of something.                                                         (There will be questions)                                                                                                                                  
      Engage other senses: touch, smell, taste, where applicable.

What are some ways to experience the experience ?


Expand and constrict
Extend
Enlarge and reduce
Connect and sever
Density:  Gradation  and absolute
How does "it" contribute to the development of society
How does "it" contribute to the destruction of society
Consume or sustain

          Nourish AND replenish (the beehive in the carcass of the lion)

Stimulation
Respite
Cross Training:

         What does learning to spin fibers into thread have to do with building a rope ladder ?

One strand is weak - 12 strands is 100 times stronger. Why ?
               The twist, and opposing tension

If a two by four in a vertical position can sustain the weight of a section of roof, 
why does a two by four in a horizontal
Position break under the same weight ? 
Does the grain of the wood
have anything to do with it?  Does bamboo have a "grain" ?
How does it compare with wood ?

Does one large stick have the same strength as
a hundred fine sticks bound together ? Which is stronger ?

What does flexibility have to do with it, if anything ?

At what point is a subject exhausted ?

Flax to linen:
   grow
   harvest
   crush and rot
   comb
   spin
   weave
   cut
   sew

Silk ?

Can this material (content) be transformed ?  The simpler the content, the more potential there is for transformation.

The more potential for transformation, the more creative the experience.
