How to Form a Chunk?

The best chunks are so well ingrained, that you don't even have to consciously think about it. 

When you're learning new math/science material:

  • Undivided attention. Let your brain focus on chunking.Leave free the limited slots in working memory
  • Understand the main idea/connection bw. the basic elements. Start with an example with solution
  • Figure out why the steps are taken the way they are. See the key features. Underline principles of a problem
  • Concern:it can be all too easy to focus too much on why an individual step works & not on why this particular step’s the next thing you should do!
