“Learning is
improved by connecting new ideas to already established ideas” – Tolu Alao
Any time you are introduced to a new
subject, your brain connects it to what’s already established (see art: Work on your foundation).
That’s the way we learn, so basically if
there’s nothing your brain can relate with, it becomes difficult if not
impossible to grasp an idea.
To stimulate this process, deliberately
seek out ways to connect what you have learnt with what you are learning.
