I had a chemistry teacher who used to say "Consumption does not equal comprehension" during the materials review the day before all of his tests.
His point was that memorizing notes wasn't going to help you pass; you had to actually work on solving problems in order to really learn the material.
- ahoyhere 16y agoI agree with both of you. That's why I (author of the essay) added that you have to look at the case studies and ask yourself what you would have done, how that could be applied to other situations, etc. That's the only way to build reusable mental patterns (IMO - not sure if there's scientific evidence for that! except mental practice of athletes, musicians, etc...) Too bad I had a word limit to work with :D
