Learning Effectively 4: Methods of Learning Part 2

Learning Effectively 4: Methods of Learning Part 2 Tube. Duration : 7.67 Mins.


The conclusion of 'Methods of Learning' explaining how the sphere method works. Constructing the sphere concept map is broken down into 3 parts, the circular layer part (core), the cross-sectional part (flesh), and a random part (skin). 1.The first part of the sphere construction begins with forming the seed and the core using a circular layer approach. The idea here is to keep information as concise and simple as possible. As a general rule of thumb, any information that requires more than a simple phrase to describe it does not belong in this section. The majority of this section should be composed of single, two to three words. This can be thought of as making an index or table of contents in a book. You start off at the centre of the sphere with your topic, and slowly build the next layer and complete it by adding in the subtopics. Sequentially, you would add any topics related to a particular subtopic in the next layer and complete it. You can expand as little or as much as you want after this point onwards depending on your preference, and the subject area you are working with. For example in biology, you would want to expand a bit more than you would in math. However, you should always keep in mind that information present in this core should not be complex. In addition, it is important that one layer should be completed before moving to the next. 2.In this section of the sphere, you will now construct the flesh of the sphere by building on your skeletal core ...
