A student is trying to learn how to read a sentence in a
book. First the letters are inputted
into his mind through his sense of vision.
Next he pays attention only to one sentence so everything else is lost
but that one sentence. Next he groups
the sentence into different words. Once
he has done that he thinks of it in a different context. For example if the sentence was, a black dog
ran fast, he would think of the sentence of a dog running as a black blur and
it would be put into his long-term memory.
Do you think he rehearses the letters to then use them in words and then he maybe rehearses words to understand how to say them correctly? I think the hardest process here would be to learn the words and their meanings. As a kid, I always connected words to pictures. Would he have previous knowledge of what a dog was to understand it in context? Super interesting post- I'm just posing questions so we can think deeper into it! :)
ReplyDeleteI might need some more clarification on the last step of this. Why does he need to think of it in a different context? Is he thinking of a black dog running fast as a blur because it's based on what he's seen before (he remembers that as a black blur?)
