Title: Chapter one of Ellen Langers book The Power of Mindful Learning

It is interesting to consider that emergencies I do understand what the author means by

may often be the result of actions taken in
this, there is a connection of chain events that
response to previous accidents(paragraph
takes place. One thing might cause something
#9)
else to happen and then something else
happens and you dont know how its going to
end up.
when we drill ourselves into a skill that
becomes second nature , is that skill still
done mindfully

I did this during, my football season I would

naturally bump into people in the hallway my
accident, but still pretty rough. The eight years
of football has taught me to be rough in cases
of contact and thats just something that sticks
with you no mater where you go in life.

The first chapter talked about how students

developed a way to memories information
for the exam but then forget it right after this
is not mindful learn.

I have a really good experience with this, Ive

memorize so many things for so many tests
that I dont remember after the test, because
its not important to me anymore. I lost the
will to keep it in my mind, that why its
important to do something you love so the
information stays with you and you can learn
something

In the case of the creative use of the

material, students with the written part had a
much more creative understand of the
subject than the control group.

I agree with this 100%, if I have to write

something for an exam, than Im going to try
harder on it that a multiple chose test, I can
cheat off of a multiple chose test, but a free

write is more of a creative way to see what the
kids know.
