From small to large, why do you always frown when talking about learning

To talk about “ Study ” Color change

From small to large , We always have a lot to learn . We must keep learning .

Have no choice but to . however ,“ Study ” This word may give people some uncomfortable feeling , I don't believe you ：

Going to school would be ,

My grandparents would say ：“ Turn off the TV , Go and learn ”

The teacher would say ：“ Your children are all right , I just don't like learning ”

Every time my dad walks me out , And never forget to add “ Study hard .”

work ,

The boss will say ：“ There will be a meeting later , Organizational learning .”

The company arranges various trainings , Also for learning ...

therefore ,“ Study ” This word will bring us some uncomfortable feelings ,

It doesn't remind us of our youth

The years when I was immersed in doing questions and taking various exams

,

Is to give people

A dull “ Repeater ” Type of training

、 Low quality educational activities such as conferences .

This is passive learning , We didn't realize the real learning at the beginning .

Sheep immersion training

Sheep dip （ In reality ） It refers to immersing unsuspecting sheep in a large water tank for cleaning , Remove the parasites from them .

The sheep lined up , You grab one and dip it in the tank , Let it feel a strong 、 strange 、 Toxic cleaning experience . however , The drug will gradually fail , So after a while you have to clean them again .

This model , It may be very popular in the company , Also known as sheep immersion training . Such as gathering a large number of uninformed employees , In an unfamiliar environment through intensive means , Spend three to five days training them , Then issue a certificate after the training , Announce what excellent titles they have won . But the effect of training will gradually weaken , So we have to do it again the next year “ Further education ” Course .

Tell your own story .

When I just entered my freshman year , Some senior brothers and sisters of the school sell English learning to us , Only later did I know that it was a club supported by training institutions . Also joined the  4  God  3  Night camp , Students from different schools get together , I feel all kinds of inspirational stories , I feel very useful , And I did get the certificate of excellent camper , Vow to make a new face in the future , Learn English well .

however , Now I still can't learn oral English well .

Yes ," Sheep dipping " Training doesn't work .

Little imagine , It is easy for us to put the process of Education , As a process of passive acceptance by learners . We will be imbued with all kinds of knowledge , Instead of taking the initiative to learn .

Let me give you another example , In our junior year , When facing the dilemma of finding a job or taking the postgraduate entrance examination , Training institutions have emerged .

some  Java  The training institution told us , learn  Java  Very easy to find a job , You can get started quickly without programming foundation . Just learn the basics well , Click on the database and SQL Basics , Learn network programming , To write  JSP  page , You can find one  Java  It's the work of programming ; If you work harder , Study  Structs、Hibernate、Spring  And popular frames , You can find a good job , At least monthly salary  10K ....

At our time , How tempting such conditions and solutions are . It was an uncertain and confused junior period , Suddenly there is such a good opportunity in front of me , If you don't catch it, you can't do it ？ therefore , More than half of the students in the major have chosen this training class . therefore , A major suddenly has a large number of  Java  Developer , Or say “ Fast food ” The programmer .

however , A few years down . When I asked the students who had attended the training class , forced , Several have quit  Java  The developer's queue .

After leaving school , Let's talk about it “ Study ”

Why is the sheep immersion method useless ？

• Learning is not imposed on you , It should be something you do on your own initiative

• Only knowledge , Not practice , of no avail . We should apply what we have learned

• Random method , No goals and no feedback , It often leads to random results

Simple and intensive classroom education can only give you the right direction at most , And grasp the outline of knowledge , It will not improve the professional level .

therefore , We should not only ask , After leaving school , How do we learn ？

1  You need to keep detailed goals .

• Whether in career , Or in personal life . To learn and grow , You need to set some goals , For example, I should learn well  Python、 I want to lose weight .

• But these goals are a bit broad , We need to be more specific ： When to start learning  Python, Learn from good examples  Python  For reptiles ; How many pounds should I lose before I lose weight , Is it through controlling food intake or increasing exercise ？

2  Continuous feedback to keep track of your progress

such as , How many kilograms have you lost this month , What chapters have you learned this month  Python  Knowledge point , Only the exact numbers give us real feedback .

You don't have to see where you're going , You don't have to see your destination and everything along the way . You just need to see a meter or two in front of you .

3  More active and comprehensive learning objectives

Besides personal goals , You can also specify goals in a larger context ： Like career 、 family 、 financial ...

Turn learning into something we must master , In a scientific way . For more information on goal setting methods, please refer to  SMART  Model

After leaving school , To meet our interests and needs , Active learning is the solution .
