How People Learn

Learning is not a passive process. Students don't just sit there and absorb wisdom.

You're back in college, in a classroom or lecture hall. A professor is teaching.

• What must you, as a student, do in order to learn what's being taught?
• What is the professor's model of your learning process?

Here are just a few of the many models of the teaching/learning process.

• The sponge model
• Story-telling
• The Socratic method
