Learning is a process of weaving together different skills to build strong 鈥渟kills ropes.鈥 黄色视频 helps students strengthen skills essential for success in and out of school鈥攕ocial, emotional and academic.
Weaving skills together
All of us pull together strands of various skills to solve problems, work with others, formulate and express our ideas, and learn from mistakes. We continuously weave academic or 鈥渃ognitive鈥 skills with social and emotional skills, such as self-management or conflict resolution. The more strands we weave together, the stronger the rope becomes.
To complete a research project in school, a student might need skills in planning, research, reading and writing. Each of these skills鈥攐r strands鈥攊s equally important for learning.
Learning is an active process, not a passive one. Just as ropes don鈥檛 weave themselves, learning requires action to take place, like putting skills to practice and applying them in multiple scenarios.
