Have you ever went to a restaurant or ate something so delicious and wondered how the food is cooked what ingredients did they use or if’s there own recipe and how did they come with it ? Most people don't most folks just eat the food because it taste good but if you're like me you think about what makes it taste so good.

Every day after this i helped my mom in the kitchen every single night . I use to sneak in the kitchen in the middle of the night and tried to cook and follow what i saw my mom doing but one night i started to think i can create my own chicken.

Everyone has their own preferred way of learning new things. Knowing how you learn can

According to Dr. Rita Smilkstein’s research into learning, the Natural Human Learning Process explains how the brain develops when someone learns. The first step is motivation to learn a new skill. People get motivated when something becomes a necessity or seems fun to them. Then the second step is the beginning practice. The beginning practice is when someone uses hands on experience and uses trial and error with the skill they are motivated to learn. The third step, she calls the advanced practice stage. In this stage the learner gains control through repetition and continuing practice learning the skill. The fourth step is skillfulness. The learner becomes more successful due to practice and gets positive reinforcement from their results. The fifth step is the refinement stage. This is when the skill becomes second nature and the person can learn new methods. The sixths and final step is mastery. This is when you can teach your skill you learned to someone else

The Learning Theory influences everyone’s culture, ethnicity, gender, and social status, by being from different geographical location and religious background everyone has a unique characteristic, when it comes to learning or problem solving. One of the most important events in a human’s life is the “Learning Theory”.

No one is born knowing how to do everything but we can all be taught. Sometimes, there are circumstances in life where factors out of our control can change who we are. Every challenge we face has the ability to teach us a variety of lessons; we just have to be willing to

This report will discuss the rationale for a unit of work, combining a class trip to Jodrell Bank. It has been planned and considered for a Year 1 class, but is adaptable to suit any Key Stage 1 class. It concentrates on the effective teaching of the foundation subjects, in particular, History and Art and Design, supporting the use of Learning Outside the Classroom (LOTC).

When I was a child, I had a need for perfection in my academic pursuits - I focused on getting every question on my tests right. My father would shake his head disapprovingly at this strategy. He told me, “education is not only what you learn, but also how you will put what you learned into use.” At the time, I couldn’t understand what he meant, but as I grew older, realizing that it’s impossible to memorize every detail I read, I understood the importance of making my knowledge practical.

How does what I have been doing lead to me becoming better at a skill

According to the article by Dr. Rita Smilkstein “Natural Human Learning Process takes place in six different stages.” In order for someone to learn they first have to have some form of motivation-- they to have an interest to learn what it is that they need to learn everything starts with motivation. Then they have to start practicing, while practicing you will make errors but you will also learn from your errors. Then comes advance practice, with advance practice you will become more confident, and feel like

In a world where creating a mistake or not knowing the solution to an issue you are looked at as a failure and not someone who can be respected. In a society where mistakes are not accepted yet these authors portray the importance of practicing and making those mistakes. Learning how to master a specific skill like knowing how to maneuver a soccer ball, play the violin without a hiccup, and doing your job to the best of your ability takes time. With time you are capable of memorizing the skills and find what is harder for you and teaching a way to understand it for oneself. The profound authors Malcolm Gladwell, who wrote “10,000 Hours Rule”, Charles Duhigg writer of “How Habits Work”, and lastly Dan Coyle, who wrote “The Sweet Spot” all giving different perspectives on what is a possible route one could take to begin achieving mastery of a skill. Each kind of writing that is being presented by the authors use many different kinds of evidence to show the understanding of the topic of creating a habit, remembering the activities from memory, and lastly repetition and how it is engraved in the brain once it has been done many many times. Gladwell, Coyle, and Duhigg all explain how repetition is a key part of refining your skills. Humans have the ability to find something that they see as interesting and become good at it. This is only accomplished if using parts of steps from these authors experiences and studies.

In order to gain knowledge, one must study him or herself. By learning about oneself, one ultimately learns about others and the world around him or her.

Cognitive and behavioral learning theories tend to dominate modern discussions of learning theories. Employed in both educational and clinical settings, both have important contributions to understanding how and why individuals learn. Is one approach statistically better than the other, or do they each have their own place where one approach may be more effective under specific circumstances? Each theory has supporters who claim the efficacy of their theory is superior. Comparison of the theories is necessary to determine if one is significantly better than the other, or even if one theory may be slightly more effective than the other. Determining if one competing theory

“It has been said: not all learning takes place in classroom. Compare and contrast knowledge gained from personal experience with knowledge gained from classroom instruction. In your opinion, which source is more important? Why?“

As Daniel J. Boorstin said, “Education is learning what you didn 't even know you didn 't know.”
