How would you connect new study material to areas that you’re already familiar with?
Answered by Sonder
I'm unsure what you mean by connect, do you mean relate new concepts to things you already know? Usually by finding how the thing you already know is related or how it functions as a key piece to the new concept.

Are they in the same subject area? Do the new materials ADD to what you already know? Do they help explain something you've studied or learned about elsewhere? You may already know a tulip from a daffodil, but does knowing how to plant bulbs relate to how to grow them, or how somebody else grows them for you to see? How does learning about mass media help you when you're watching TV? Are the two concepts related? Are a war and learning about it's aftermath related? You already know about the war, but now new material tells you how if affected what came after. Or are they separate, unrelated things with no connection?
