6. Page 6 Walter Gong Walter Gong campaigned for Exponential Learning and Teaching. Walter's theory revolves around taking an idea and breaking it into it's simplest parts (ex. 20 sticks). He simplified learning / teaching into three parts: –1 – Knowledge –2 – Roles –3 - Experience

7. Page 7 The Three-Person Problem: A Simplest Case Model of Learning and Teaching What is it? Who is involved? What are the roles/4 key components? How does it work? Do you think it can practically be applied? What is knowledge?

11. Page 11 Knowledge Framework What is the knowledge framework? –Define the 4 parts: purpose (problem), central message (themes), validations (representations), and values (beliefs/ rational) –What do the 4 parts of the knowledge framework have to do with learning? Explain how capture, evaluation, and expansion fits into the knowledge framework.

12. Page 12 He is best known for his L/T model which divides Learning/Teaching into 4 distinct categories. –Purpose ( Why ?) Why has the author tried to communicate? To share an insight? To convince? To criticize? To entertain? Specifically why is he or she making the effort to say something, in that way, and that that time, to his/her audience? –Central Message ( What ?) What exactly is the point, the essence, the main idea? Find it and force yourself to make it into a clear complete statement; e.g., "Her central argument is that....” –Validation ( How ?) How has the author supported his or her central message (validation), or how can that idea be used (application)? Find the supporting evidence - ideas, facts, images, etc.--that the author uses to convince you. If you identify the pattern of support, you will have outlined the piece of writing. –Values / Assumptions ( Where ?) Where does the author stand? What does he or she believe in or value? What is assumed or taken for granted in this piece of writing? Who is the assumed audience of this piece? As a reader, work to pay attention to and discover the values, beliefs, biases, assumptions (sometimes overt, sometimes subtle) underlying what you read.

16. Page 16 Roles: (Learner/Teacher) 2 Mix of attitudes and relationships - examples? Role = Love –Define and explain how is it essential –Applications? The Bonds That Make Us Free Paradigm shift –Circumstance, environment, tradition
