Framework For Learning
I am and will be a lifelong learner. I enjoy learning about new things and desire to grow constantly. The problem I ran into was knowing what to do with new information. I wasn’t good at applying it to my life. Most of it was seed that fell in shallow soil; it never took root.
I have always enjoyed sharing what I learn. I have realized that when I take the time to teach or explain something, I understand it much better. Through this process, I often figure out how to apply that knowledge.
A three-step framework has emerged from having done this for a long time.
- Collect—The stage of reading and gathering information on a specific topic.
- Apply—This is the stage where I am figuring out what to do with the new information and how to apply it to my life.
- Transfer—I take what I have learned, what worked, what didn’t, and how I applied it, and then transfer that information to someone else.
