Learning Focus:
For the youngest learners topics are going to be more concrete. In studying animals they may brainstorm that they’d like to study farm animals, pets, etc. In focused learning they would learn about birds and amphibians. In the end it may be exploring animals in larger habitats such as tropical mammals or marine.
For growing learners topics may begin in a concrete and factual way but evolve into a more detailed science. The topic is flowers. Brainstorming on flowers the learner decides to learn by size and type. Upon further inspection they focus on how flowers become fruit and are grafted. In blended learning the concepts surrounding genealogy and inheritance traits can be explored.
For advanced learners topics may begin concrete and quickly delve into the esoteric. The subject transportation immediately evokes images of cars, airplanes, trains and even horses. Yet upon further examination the psychology of movement, the need to travel or even anatomy of bipedal movement could be focused on. As the learner draws conclusions they are enlightened to an element of the human condition.
For learners seeking a skill the initial brainstorming may be completely different. Often practice involves daily activity. Drawing every day may be a linear activity but the focus and interest may vary. A musician may find that they need to deeply focus on a particular genre or even a cord. Using this outline to complete a complex artistic may mean that tangents are taken!
