Truly
Accelerated Learning
Today there exist many forms of "accelerated learning" or "superlearning," some of them truly accelerated. Most of these are defined in terms of how rapidly one can acquire, short-term or long-term, great masses of
information. In other words, a quantitative approach to speeded-up
learning, as distinct from the qualitative, learning-with-understanding approach we are discussing here below. A few forms of accelerated learning or superlearning emphasize effective strategies in matching to the learner the style and form of information being presented to him.
How many of these forms of accelerated learning or superlearning center
on long-term intellectual understanding? On scientific understandings? On aesthetic, artistic understanding? On human understandings? Or physical
understandings as in athletics or in artistic performance?A roadmap to these is what we present in this briefing.
A non-profit, 501(C)(3) education and research firm, Project Renaissance
has developed a wide range and number of methods for easier, more effective teaching and learning, which do center on, improve, and
accelerate acquisition of these forms of meaningful conceptual understanding. These are not memorization methods — they are learning-with-understanding methods. They bring within your easy
reach, ranges and depths of understanding which you — or your teachers — or
your students — never before thought could be possible.
Moreover, many of the best, easiest-to-grasp-and-use methods are freely
available to you right now!
Here is where you will find complete, easy, step-by-specific-step instructions for their use:
Now, however, many of these techniques have been made yours freely on
the Web. Your roadmap to these begins at
Discover also how to turn these into powerful accelerated or superlearning methods, at
By this same direct, easy
means, the teacher can: highlight the most important points of his lesson;
strengthen and accelerate his students' meaningful and long-term grasp of the lesson; and meanwhile regroup his own forces, find respite and relief, accomplish far more for far less effort, and get to far better observe-in-action and understand his own students. Please see and give yourself an exhilarating experience of the easy-focus accelerated learning or superlearning method, Dynamic Format.
Think that through, to see why that is the case and how to bring that outcome about. Also consider the many wider implications of this fact. And/or: see
By far the best demonstrated form of accelerated learning or
superlearning is Socratic Method, which everyone has heard of but hardly anyone appears to know much about. Over 2400 years of history, use of
Socratic Method consistently has led to highest-level intellectual achievement. Socratic Method's use has resulted in a per capita rate of
production of world-class geniuses some ten million times greater
than that of the methods currently in standard use, despite all our modern
advantages in information technology.
Now, through modern science, we finally do understand what makes Socratic Method such an effective accelerated-learning method. We even know
how to improve on these effects and make them far more broadly available.
To understand these effects and to see how to bring them about, see these explanatory briefings:
To see an easy, expense-free way to make such effects broadly available, even in large classrooms and poor teacher/student ratios, see (op.cit.)
The job ahead of us, to repair education and save generations of
irreplaceable learners, is larger than even all us together. Our various methods and programs are not competing; we need instead to explore and to find synergistic combinations and new discoveries which will let us mutually magnify our strengths toward that task. What matters is that the job gets done.
