Editor's Notes
- Welcome back. This week we’ll discuss how we learn, begin to explore intermediate HTML and CSS, look at the web development process and look at a case study before we look at your assignment.
- Let’s begin by warming up your right brain.
- Ok, let’s talk about your assignment for this week.
- In the medieval university the professor read from an original source to a class of students who took notes on the lecture. Knowledge was disseminated through the lecture format, students would take notes from what the professor said. Books were available, but before the advent of the printing press they were extremely expensive and only for the rich.
- The printing press allowed for the ideas of an individual to be distributed much more widely than in a classroom. Lecturers could now transcribe their notes into a book and students could purchase the book. But books were still expensive, so lectures continued for many years.
- Even now this ancient idea of the lecture persists. It makes sense for some classes, but not for others. Why is this bad? It has a lot to do with your brain -- both the left and right side -- how long you retain information.
- Here’s the problem with the lecture. That blue guy is Mr. Forgetful by the way, a book written by Roger Hargreaves: mrmen.wikia.com/wiki/Mr._Forgetful
- On Day 1, at the beginning of the lecture you go in knowing very little, presumably (or 0%) which is where the curve starts at the baseline. At the end of the lecture, you know 100% of what you know however well you know it (where the curve reaches its highest point). Note that I’m not saying you’ll remember everything that was said during the lecture. You might tune out during class or your mind may wander. The 100% represents how much you got from the lecture that day, not 100% of what was said.
- By Day 2, if you don’t do anything with the information you’ll have lost 50-80% of what you learned. Our brains are constantly recording information on a temporary basis: scraps of conversation, television we watch, what people are wearing, etc. Because the information isn’t necessary and it doesn’t come up again, our brains dump it all off -- along with what was learned in the lecture that you actually do want to hold on to.
- By Day 7, we remember even less and because our brains are constantly absorbing information by Day 30 we retain only 2-3% of the original lecture.
- The good news is that you can alter the curve.
- If on Day 2 for every hour you were in in class you spend 10 minutes reviewing your notes, you’ll retain a great deal of the information you learned. So if you had a 3 hour class, you would spend 30 minutes reviewing your notes. It will also adhere in your long-term memory.
- And if by Day 7 for every hour you were in class you spend 5 minutes reviewing you’ll retain a great deal of that information. So if you had a three hour class you would need to spend 15 minutes reviewing your notes.
- And by Day 30 for every hour you were in in class, you spend 2-4 minutes reviewing your notes you’ll continue to retain much of the information. So for a 3-hour class you would need to spend between 6-12 minutes reviewing your notes. Thirty days out you are better able to keep the information in your long-term memory.
- But let’s say you don’t take this wonderful advice.
- Somewhere between Day 7 and Day 30 you begin studying. Cramming won’t plant the material in your long-term memory.
- You’ll need to spend 40-50 minutes re-learning each hour of material later. So for one class session (usually 3 hours) you’ll need to spend 2 hours 30 minutes relearning. Or, if you need to catch up on three classes (9 hours total), you’ll need to spend 6 hours 45 minutes relearning the material.
- So three classes (9 hours worth of class) would take nearly 7 hours of review, while reviewing in small segments over the course of time would require less than 3 hours. Can you think of something you could do with those extra 4 hours?
- In the grand scheme of things, years later you’re not going to forget much of what you’ve learned. The reason we’re even discussing this topic is to show you a better way.
- Rosetta Stone, the language learning software, works so well because it lets you teach yourself. It uses your right-brain -- and your left brain -- to help you learn and more importantly, remember. The Rosetta Stone software uses images, text, and sound, with increasing difficulty levels (much like a game), in order to teach language intuitively without drills or translation. Rosetta Stones calls this the Dynamic Immersion method. According to the company, the software teaches languages the way we first learned them. The United States Army uses Rosetta Stone to teach deploying troops Arabic.
- Here’s an example of Rosetta Stone teaching Brazilian Portuguese.
- Here’s an example ... the computer says the word at the top “Tchau.” You’re supposed to figure out the correct image that correlates with the word. You also repeat the word.
- When you pick the correct you’re associating three things: 1. A foreign word that you don’t know 2. With an image of something that’s familiar to you (a picture of people waving good-bye) 3. With a word that you do know (“Bye”) This is much richer than just simply memorizing a word. Associating it with an image embeds the association deeper in your brain.
- Here’s a great example of association that is employed by Rosetta Stone. Can you make an outline drawing of the country Denmark? It might be difficult for you.
- What if I asked you to draw an outline of Italy ...
- Italy is probably easier to draw than Denmark. You’ve associated the country of Italy as looking like a boot. You probably don’t have a shape association for Denmark. You’ve associated meaningful information about a country you’ve probably never been to simply because you’ve associated an image with it.
- One of the smartest guys we know reminds us that we don’t need to remember everything ...
- ... which is why I gave you the HTML and CSS cheat sheet. You’re not going to remember everything we discuss in class. My goal is to teach you concepts and show you how to teach yourself. Google is a wonderful teaching tool. If you don’t understand a concept we discuss in this class, I encourage you to Google it.
