how to become an active learner
Fast-reading for main ideas of each paragraph.
While-reading
Read the first paragraph and answer questions.
Most people assume that the human brain is set on "automatic“--- that means it learns all by itself. But this isn't always true. We need to train ourselves to be better learners to actively take part in the learning process and to reflect on what we have learnt. These kinds of learning behaviours are called "active learning". I suggest doing five things to take an active role in your learning.

Listen to the outer voice
Focus on what the speaker/ writer is saying rather than what their brain says in the background.
1) Useful as inner voice can be, it can also get in the way of learning.
2) Paying too much attention to inner voice, one may risk missing important information.
Active learners are in a better position to make decisions.
open-minded
1. If you listen to the outer-voice, .
A. you will express your personal opinions better
B. you will make better decisions
C. you will ignore others’ opinions
D. you will concentrate on what your brain is saying
2. By what means does the inner voice get in the way of learning
Para. 2
√
If you keep paying too much attention to your inner voice, you risk missing important information.
There are two kinds of voices: the inner voice and the outer voice. Your inner voice expresses your personal opinions, while the outer voice tells you about opinions from what you hear or read. Although your inner voice can be useful, it can also get in the way of learning. If you keep paying too much attention to it, you risk missing important information. Instead, active learners are open-minded and focus on what the speaker /writer is saying, not on what their brain is saying in the background. In this way, they are in a better position to make decisions.

Argue with
your inner voice
Think about why others may be right.
1) Your inner voice is difficult to control.
2) Your inner voice denies others’ opinions.
√ You may end up agreeing with others.
If not, you have at least “listened to” another point of view.
flexible
1. What should you do if you think another person is wrong
A. Follow your heart.
B. Argue with him/her.
C. Think in his/her shoes.
D. Agree with him/her unconditionally.
Para. 3
√
2. How do you understand the sentence “If not, at least you have ‘listened to’ another point of view.”
Even though you don’t agree with the speaker or writer, you have considered other opinion carefully.
If you find your inner voice difficult to control, you can argue with it as most active learners do. When your inner voice tells you a speaker / writer is wrong, think about why the speaker/writer may be right. Be flexible in your opinions and you might end up agreeing with the speaker /writer after all. If not, at least you have" listened to" another point of view.

Ask questions
Ask more questions about the topic that is involved in the information wherever you get it.

A. We must ask others questions when learning knowledge.
B. The more questions, the better understanding.
C. A learner can’t be too curious to find information about the topic.

√
Asking questions is the easiest way to promote active learning. When you get information from someone, from books or the Internet, ask two, three, even five questions about the topic. The answers will lead you to further learning, and the very act of working out questions will help you to achieve a higher level of understanding about the topic. In short: Do not stop being curious.

To show how an active learner tries to find the truth at the heart of each idea even though it sounds crazy.
√
Active learners do not accept everything they learn. They attempt to find the truth at the heart of each idea. Even when an idea sounds entirely unlikely, there may be an aspect of it that is based on truth. So if someone says that dinosaurs still exist today, think about why they believe this. Where does the idea come from Do they have enough data to support their views If you try to find out the source of an idea, no matter how crazy it seems, you will increase your chance of learning something.

Focus on the message
objective
1) Separate the message from the messenger.
2) Do not judge people based on first impressions or personal feelings.
1) Many people miss out on learning if they let their personal feelings get in the way.
2) Judging people by first impressions prevents you from learning from them.
Learning opportunities are everywhere, which can help active learners learn all the time.
Read Para 6 and fill in the form.
1. How should we avoid missing out on learning opportunities
A. By ignoring what is said by people we don’t like.
B. By judging people based on first impressions.

Para. 6

D. By making comparisons.
√
√
Many people miss out on learning opportunities because they let their feelings get in the way. They refuse to learn or ignore what is said because of who the speaker /writer is. It is true that we cannot help disliking some people this is human nature, after all. But do not forget you can still learn from them. Active learners do not judge people based on first impressions or personal feelings. Instead, they separate the message from the messenger. This goes the other way as well - do not just assume that some people are always right because of who they are or just because they are your friends.
