Fllw the uter vice.
We all have tw vices. Our inner vice expresses ur persnal pinins, while the uter vice handles thers’ pinins. Althugh ur inner vice can be useful, it can als blck us frm learning. If we pay t much attentin t it, we risk missing imprtant infrmatin while learning. Instead, active learners are pen-minded and fcus n what the speaker/writer is saying, nt n what their brain is saying. 2.
Debate with the inner vice.
If we find it a struggle t cntrl ur inner vice, we can disagree with it as mst active learners d. When ur inner vice tells us a speaker/writer is wrng, think abut why the speaker/writer may be right. 3. If nt, at least we have “listened t” anther viewpint.
Ask questins.
One f the easiest ways t prmte active learning is t ask questins. When we btain infrmatin frm smene, frm bks r the Internet, ask a series f questins abut the tpic. 4. In shrt, we shuld never stp being curius.
Seek the truth.
Active learners make an attempt t questin the wrld arund them and get t the truth deep within each idea. Even when an idea sunds insane, there may be an aspect f it rted in truth. N matter hw crazy it seems, we will increase ur chance f learning smething.
5.
Many peple let learning pprtunities slip because they ignre what is said because f wh the speaker/writer is. But active learners dn’t judge peple n the basis f first impressins. Instead,they separate the message frm the messenger.
A. Cncentrate yur attentin n the message itself.
B. Frm pinins based n first impressins f messengers.
C. In this manner, they are in a better psitin t make decisins.
D. I suggest ding a number f things t actively take part in ur learning.
E. Be flexible in ur pinins and we might end up agreeing with the speaker/writer after all.
F. Fr example, we can stay active in the learning prcess and reflect n what we have learnt.
G. The answers will lead us t further learning and help us gain a deeper understanding f the tpic.

Fllw the uter vice.
We all have tw vices. Our inner vice expresses ur persnal pinins, while the uter vice handles thers’ pinins. Althugh ur inner vice can be useful, it can als blck us frm learning. If we pay t much attentin t it, we risk missing imprtant infrmatin while learning. Instead, active learners are pen-minded and fcus n what the speaker/writer is saying, nt n what their brain is saying. 2.
Debate with the inner vice.
If we find it a struggle t cntrl ur inner vice, we can disagree with it as mst active learners d. When ur inner vice tells us a speaker/writer is wrng, think abut why the speaker/writer may be right. 3. If nt, at least we have “listened t” anther viewpint.
Ask questins.
One f the easiest ways t prmte active learning is t ask questins. When we btain infrmatin frm smene, frm bks r the Internet, ask a series f questins abut the tpic. 4. In shrt, we shuld never stp being curius.
Seek the truth.
Active learners make an attempt t questin the wrld arund them and get t the truth deep within each idea. Even when an idea sunds insane, there may be an aspect f it rted in truth. N matter hw crazy it seems, we will increase ur chance f learning smething.
5.
Many peple let learning pprtunities slip because they ignre what is said because f wh the speaker/writer is. But active learners dn’t judge peple n the basis f first impressins. Instead,they separate the message frm the messenger.
A. Cncentrate yur attentin n the message itself.
B. Frm pinins based n first impressins f messengers.
C. In this manner, they are in a better psitin t make decisins.
D. I suggest ding a number f things t actively take part in ur learning.
E. Be flexible in ur pinins and we might end up agreeing with the speaker/writer after all.
F. Fr example, we can stay active in the learning prcess and reflect n what we have learnt.
G. The answers will lead us t further learning and help us gain a deeper understanding f the tpic.
