  • Defining Learning: Learning is the durable change in knowledge or skill that lets you respond to situations you could not handle before, and that survives time away from the material.
  • Learning Is a Skill: Learning is the deliberate construction of knowledge and skill so it becomes readily available from memory when you face new problems and opportunities.
  • Prior Knowledge as Foundation: All new learning rests on what you already know; richer, more accurate prior knowledge makes subsequent learning faster, deeper, and more transferable.
