Problem Solving ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],The INK BLOTS activity forces you to use problem solving skills that can be compared to the process of writing a research paper. The steps for conducing research include, identifying a topic, researching/understanding all the details related to that topic, and translating your research/ understanding into a format for your audience to understand.  If you follow the problem solving steps listed in the gray box above, the process for understanding the seemingly unconnected bits of information in the picture becomes much easier. You need to get a sense of the larger picture and not focus on the separate details of the picture as unconnected to a framework of understanding. Once you find a way  to look at the information (the problem)  and  process the information into meaningful chunks/frameworks for understanding (make a plan) , it becomes easier to organize your thinking and present your ideas in a way that others can understand. You evaluate the effectiveness of your plan as you translate your ideas to your  audience and determine if they could understand what you where trying to convey. The Problem 3 Ways to  Organize Your  Thoughts/ Have an Overall Plan of  Understanding/ Transmitting Your Understanding to Others 1 Grid 2  Compare  To Known 3  Make new  connections Pablo Picasso’s “ Don Quixote” Knight on a horse
Problem Solving ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Schema A  schema  in general is a specific, well-documented, and consistent plan. The related word,  scheme  means a loosely described plan. A  schema  (pl.  schemata ), in  psychology  and  cognitive science , is a mental structure (prior knowledge) that represents some aspect of the world. People use schemata to organize current knowledge and provide a framework for future understanding.
Schema as a Net Think of SCHEMA as a fishing net.  The first time you put the net in the water, you gather a lot of big fish.  Over time, however, as the net’s holes shrink from use, the smaller holes allow for smaller fish to be captured.  In essence, you get more fish each time your dip your net into the water.  So, the more you activate your schema before you try to study, the more details you will pick up as you read, complete an assignment, or simply get to understand what your course is all about and try to manage your  school workload.
Time Management
Time is a Valuable Commodity ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Reality Check Approximately 10-16 hours per week is the optimum time for successful completion of a 4-credit study. In addition, it is important for you to have as regular a schedule as you can manage to meet the deadlines for assignments.

Life is multimodal.   Seldom are there instances where one mode is used, or is sufficient.  There are those who prefer many modes almost equally are of two types. Others choose a single mode to suit the occasion or situation. There are others who are not satisfied until they have had input (or output) in all of their preferred modes. They take longer to gather information from each mode and, as a result, they often have a deeper and broader understanding.  AURAL/ AUDITORY KINESTHETIC READ/ WRITE VISUAL MULTI- MODAL

  • 40. Schema A schema in general is a specific, well-documented, and consistent plan. The related word, scheme means a loosely described plan. A schema (pl. schemata ), in psychology and cognitive science , is a mental structure (prior knowledge) that represents some aspect of the world. People use schemata to organize current knowledge and provide a framework for future understanding.
  • 41. Schema as a Net Think of SCHEMA as a fishing net. The first time you put the net in the water, you gather a lot of big fish. Over time, however, as the net’s holes shrink from use, the smaller holes allow for smaller fish to be captured. In essence, you get more fish each time your dip your net into the water. So, the more you activate your schema before you try to study, the more details you will pick up as you read, complete an assignment, or simply get to understand what your course is all about and try to manage your school workload.
  • 43.
  • 44. Reality Check Approximately 10-16 hours per week is the optimum time for successful completion of a 4-credit study. In addition, it is important for you to have as regular a schedule as you can manage to meet the deadlines for assignments.

Others choose a single mode to suit the occasion or situation. There are others who are not satisfied until they have had input (or output) in all of their preferred modes.
