[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Memorization is not the same as education. They can google any of that. I would rather have them remember from working with the concepts and relationships of each topic as opposed to rote memorization.[/quote] Turns out that knowing facts (memorization) is the basis of being able to comprehend something. https://greatminds.org/english/blog/witwisdom/the-science-of-reading-what-is-prior-knowledge-and-why-is-it-important[/quote] Knowing facts is definitely NOT the same as memorization. Don’t you find it illuminating that the word “memorization” does not appear even once in that very long article that you used as a citation? Shouldn’t that tell you something?[/quote]
