Описание: As weve moved from the industrial age through the information age, the way we learn has become more impersonal and less effective. From the voracious reading and writing of the past to todays sound bites and multiple choice tests, our fast-paced, listicle and text message world has worked its way into our schools, workplaces, and homes. Learning has become shallow, with little or no connection to the big picture. The Deep Learning Manual helps you hit the reset button and return to a more satisfying and fulfilled learning experience. One thats built on self-exploration and discovery, rather than rote memorization.
This easy-to-read book gives you simple tools and techniques that will help you:
-Make sense in a soundbite world
-Increase your powers of observation
-Connect the dots and see the big picture
-Look more closely at how you learn so you can adjust and learn at a deeper level
-Break old learning habits that are holding you back
-Build and grow your personal body of knowledge
-Clearly express what youve learned so you can pass your knowledge along to others.
What people are saying about the Deep Learning Manual:
Every now and then you run into a book that transforms your fundamental thinking. Not only is this book fun to read, it will reset your learning process. This is one of those rare books that I will carry around with me. This book is to be read and studied, re-read and re-studied, and incorporated into our fundamental outlook and learning process. - Tom McCabe, Founder, McCabe Software and Expanded Consciousness Institute
The Deep Learning Manual makes new insights deceptively easy. Short chapters take you through lively lessons, and without realizing it, youve found new ways to use your mind. Art Murray has given us a guide to go beyond rote knowledge into the depths of understanding. - Dr. William E. Halal, Professor Emeritus, The George Washington University; Founder and Chairman, TechCast(TM) Global
Dr. Murray offers a common sense guide to a style of teaching that has its foundations in the Classical Age. As one trained in the classics, learning mostly from primary source information, I appreciate Dr. Murrays perspective on education before computers, textbooks and classrooms. Aristotles classroom had no walls; physically or academically. Exploration and deep thought reigned in the minds of those whose influence would shape the civilized world for the next millennium.
The principles outlined in this manual have been tested, tried and have proven to produce genuine learning, laced with understanding and wisdom - Dr. Fred Snowden, Founder, Virginia Academy; faculty, The OVO School, Guangdong Province, China
How do you prefer to learn? Murrays Deep Learning Manual is indeed a knowledge explorers guide to self-discovery. And while it begins posing two points of view, as it provides exercises for expanding your powers of observation and writing to learn, it becomes quite clear that learning is in the hands of the learner. So sharpen your #2 pencil, climb on board that beam of light, and embrace the deep learning cycle. Your life may never be the same. - Drs. Alex and David Bennet, Co-Founders, Mountain Quest Institute
A compelling Primer that draws all the way from pencil and paper to quantum in describing a new approach for stimulating out-of-the-box thinking, superior learning, and personal discovery. - Dr. Dan Holtshouse, former Director, Corporate Strategy, Xerox Corporation
Just as business and education are realizing the need to move from a shallow learning approach of memorizing facts, this breakthrough book provides the basics - and blueprint - for how to approach deep learning. - Dr. John Lewis, Co-Founder, The CoHero Institute for Collaborative Leadership in Learning Organizations
