This is my 30th day of writing.
The number of words in this book is 1794.
Hi! Hello, today we continue to read the third section of chapter 5 of "Cognitive Awakening".
Keywords: association
Let's take a look at a phenomenon first: many of us like to read books, like to collect golden sentences, like to draw mind maps, and use some fashionable new words from time to time to post a circle of friends.
However, we will find that we spend a lot of time doing the things in front of us, but when we pick up the pen to write something, our minds are blank and we can't write anything.
What's going on?
This phenomenon is what the author mentioned earlier: shallow learning.
"Knowing the knowledge points is only the most superficial learning. ”
In 1956, Bloom, a famous contemporary American psychologist, divided the cognitive domain into six levels: knowing, comprehending, applying, analyzing, synthesizing and evaluating in the book "Taxonomy of Educational Goals".
It is generally believed thatKnowing, comprehending, and applying belong to low-order thinking, that is, shallow learning; The three aspects of analysis, synthesis and evaluation belong to higher-order thinking, namely:Deep learning
Therefore, "association" is the key behavior that helps us move from shallow learning to deep learning.
The masters know it
Use "relative" learning
In the previous chapters, the author mentioned Luo Zhenyu's learning method: sewing buttons.
At first, I didn't understand it too much, but when I saw this, I finally knew about it.""Sewing buttons" is "related knowledge points".No relevance, no learning. In the past two days, I have been chasing the drama "Black Soil Without Words", and a scene in it impressed me deeply. In the office of the Interpol team, there are several whiteboards that stand out as a standout. It is plastered with **, and the ** is connected by dense red threads. These red threads, which connect the various characters and events to each other, form an intricate network. And Guan Yu, the captain of the criminal police, was looking for a breakthrough in this network, and finally cracked these thorny cases with his keen observation and logical thinking ability. 
*From the TV series "Black Soil Without a Word".
This method of solving crimes is based on:"Mosaic Theory".。Mosaic theory originally referred to an analytical method used by analysts to gather information about a company. Mosaic theory involves collecting public, non-public, and non-material information about a company to determine its potential value and enable analysts to make recommendations to clients based on that information. Today, this method has been used in a wide range of industries. 
*From the Internet.
For example, the application of children's creation. The mosaic method is to let children use their own way to put together the bits and pieces of life into a picture. This approach combines traditional research tools with tools that engage young children to listen to their thoughts. It makes adults understand that children actually have a lot of their own ideas. This method is like giving children a variety of colored brushes, so that they can draw however they want. Observe, chat, take pictures, make books, go to kindergarten, draw maps, ......Each method is a way for children to express themselves. When all this collected information is put together, the children's inner world will be displayed in front of us in the form of a picture scroll!
*From Cognitive Awakening
In the same way, we can also apply the "mosaic theory" to learning and reading, which is commonly known as "association". Correlation can help us turn the golden sentences and knowledge points we usually read and collect from a plate of loose sand into a tower of knowledge, so that our thoughts have more depth and breadth. Connections can help us make wonderful connections with seemingly unrelated things, and stimulate our innovative thinking and imagination. Correlation can help us simplify complex problems into a series of simple problems, making us more comfortable in solving them. Correlation can help us organize messy information into a clear body of knowledge, making us more efficient when learning new knowledge.
How to get it
The ability to "relate"?
Relevance is a valuable way of thinking that allows us to better understand and respond to the complexity of the world. So how can you have the ability to relate? Let's take a look at the author's recommendations. First of all, you must have goals and dreams. Goals are like a compass that guides us in the direction we are heading; Dreams are the inner flame that burns our passion and motivation. People who have no goals and dreams are like a ship without a compass, drifting with the tide and losing their way. Second, enter enough inputs. Input helps us to get information points, knowledge points. No sand, ** to the tower? Read, think, and don't stop. Again, be curious. Curiosity is the driving force to explore the unknown and the key to unlocking the treasure trove of knowledge. Only by staying curious can we continue to explore new areas, acquire new knowledge, and broaden and deepen our thinking. At the same time, curiosity stimulates our creativity and imagination, helping us to discover more possibilities and opportunities. So, always be curious, have the courage to try new things, and challenge your thinking and cognition. Again, a word is often said. Li Xiaolai's common phrase is: Where else can this principle be used? So, find a phrase that you often say and think. This sentence can be a word of encouragement or a warning to remind yourself. By repeating this phrase constantly, we can constantly adjust our mindset and behavior to maintain a positive attitude. At the same time, this sentence can also be our life credo, guiding us to make the right decisions and actions. No matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter, as long as we keep this sentence in mind, we can strengthen our faith and move forward bravely. Finally, take the initiative to find associations. "Han Feizi Says Linshang": "The sage sees the subtlety to know the sprout, and the end to know the end, so he sees the elephant and is terrified, and knows the lack of the world." "Seeing the subtleties, the work is in ordinary times. The cultivation of relational ability requires continuous accumulation and practice in our daily life. Deliberate practice, at this time, is to help us! Well, that's all for today. Tomorrow to continue!
