Research tells us that
learning is all about making connections. |
There are a
variety of connections that are made as we learn. On the biological
side, our brain makes neural connections. Cognitive psychology
emphasizes connections we make between new information and existing
knowledge. Social psychologists tell us that our connections to other
people help us build our understandings.
