00:01
Now, I want to talk to you a little bit more
about encoding, storage, and retrieval.
00:05
This is going to make you feel uncomfortable.
Now, look at the picture.
00:09
It's like we've taken a puzzle box and we've dumped it out on the table, right?
Can you tell me what
picture that puzzle is?
No. This is much like when you first
start studying a new concept.
00:21
You have really no idea how it fits together.
Now, you do some studying.
00:25
You might want to underline but you
know that that's a beginning step.
00:30
You're asking yourself, "Why would a nurse need to know this?
How does it keep
a patient safe?"
You're pausing and recalling while
you're doing your studying.
00:39
You're actually thinking
about how these pieces
should start to
kind of fit together.
00:43
Now you have a basic
scaffold or a general idea.
00:46
Another way to do this when
you're reading a textbook
is look at the
bolded headings.
00:50
And get an outline, an idea of why
you're looking at this topic.
00:54
That's like putting all the straight
edge pieces of a puzzle together.
00:58
Now still, can you tell me
what the picture is?
No, you can't.
01:02
But at least we have a basic
scaffolding and a general idea.
01:06
You know what
would be the bomb?
If you did these two
things before class.
01:11
If you walk in the class having been
exposed to the I-hear-you-yelling.
01:16
Yes, I hear you
telling me.
01:18
Let me tell you everything
you're saying right now.
01:20
I don't have time.
Are you kidding me?
I barely make it.
What do you do about it?
Yeah,
those are excuses.
01:26
What if you tried never giving
or receiving an excuse?
You said, “What can I do in my life
so I can at least take one small step?
What can I control?” These thoughts
are based on emotions.
01:38
What can I control so that
I can walk into class
with some little bit
of preparation
and see if it makes a
difference in what I learn?
And then try adding that
slowly to your study habits.
01:50
Because once you've
got this structure out,
once you've got the basic scaffolding
and the general idea,
when you start going to class
interacting with the faculty
and studying more, and as you invest
more time and energy in that
in an appropriate
and strategic way,
the picture is going
to come into focus.
02:08
Now, you'll notice there are still
some pieces missing, right?
It isn't a complete and
total puzzle picture.
02:15
There are pieces missing.
That's okay.
02:17
This is the part where I told you you're
going to feel uncomfortable.
02:21
I want you to know that when
you're feeling uncomfortable,
that's where the learning
has happened.
02:26
Now, that's different
than einstellung.
02:28
When you're frustrated,
and you're angry,
and you don't know where
to go, that's different.
02:32
But what I want you to know is when
you're learning something new,
it's going to feel wonky like
that new information piece.
02:39
Everything looks like
you can't tell what it is.
02:41
Then you barely feel like you've kind of
got the outline of the information.
02:45
But at least you
have the scaffold.
02:47
So when you go to class,
and you're listening to lecture,
and you're interacting with your peers,
and you're doing further study,
slowly that picture
will come into focus.
02:56
I want you to be comfortable
at each stage and say,
“This is what learning is."
Learning feels uncomfortable.
03:04
If I'm struggling,
I'm learning.
03:07
Not einstellung
but I'm struggling.
03:09
That means I'm learning
and I'm building
new relationships
between my neurons.
03:14
Remember, change the
charge of your thoughts.
03:17
Reframe it.
Don't make it negative.
03:19
This is so hard.
I'm so slow.
03:21
Uh-huh, no, learning
is uncomfortable.
03:24
If I'm uncomfortable,
then I'm learning.
03:26
My goal is I'm going to make the
connections. I'm going to apply it.
03:30
It's going to live in
my long-term memory
where it's going to change the
way I take care of patients.
03:35
Because I'm going to be
that type of nurse
that every patient I interact
with has a better day
or better quality of life because
I took care of them that shift.
03:46
So when you've got it at the
end, see what it does.
03:49
You're trying to focus
and memorize facts.
03:51
Look at the picture there.
Look what you're missing.
03:54
If you just try and
memorize things
without actually applying
them and understanding,
you're missing
the big picture.
04:01
That's what
we're after.
04:02
Mastery is understanding
the big picture.
04:06
That way, you encode the information
in a regular way.
04:09
You store it in a way that
it can be retrieved
because that's
what you want.
04:14
When you're taking
care of a patient,
you want to know what to do
when you hit a crisis,
or an emergency, or an everyday
event with a patient.
04:23
Also, I know you want to
be able to retrieve it
when you’re
taking a test.

Siempre es bueno recordar lo importante de seguir estudiando y mantener la imagen general de las cosas cuando se adquiere conocimientos (Perspectiva)
