up:: Learning MOC

We can learn and assimilate new information more quickly when it is interconnected. This is because each new layer of information builds upon the previously known information(Prior Knowledge), gradually increasing its magnitude. New stuff is learned in a way to make use of existing stuff.

Гельмут Д. Сакс говорит об этом так: «Изучая, сохраняя и строя новое на базе старого, мы создаем обширную сеть взаимосвязанной информации. Чем больше мы знаем, чем больше инфор­мации (крючков) у нас есть, чтобы связать новую информацию, тем легче нам формировать долговременную память.»

Things that we learn are going through Assimilation and Accommodation. And ultimately it creates a network of ideas or latticework of mental models (Munger, 1994), which enhances learning and information retrieval.

That makes it easier not only to learn and remember, but also to retrieve the information later at the moment and context it is needed.

Quote

«Things we understand are connected, either through rules, theories, narratives, pure logic, mental models or explanations. And deliberately building these kinds of meaningful connections is what the slip-box is all about. Once we make a meaningful connection to an idea or fact, it is difficult not to remember it when we think about what it is connected with.» (How to Take Smart Notes. Ahrens, Sönke)
