The document discusses two approaches to learning - deep learning and surface learning. Deep learning links previous knowledge to new ideas, uses critical analysis, relates evidence to conclusions, leads to long term retention by integrating ideas through organizing principles, and promotes understanding and application. In contrast, surface learning passively accepts information, focuses on memorizing unlinked facts, results in short term retention without distinguishing patterns, and emphasizes coverage over depth.

understanding Deep Learning Links previous knowledge to new one Critical analysis of new ideas Relates evidence to conclusions Leads to long term retention Integrates ideas using organizing principles Promotes understanding & application for life Example: Surface Learning Surface Learning/Rote Learning Accepts information & ideas passively Memorization of unlinked facts Short-term retention of contents Fails to distinguish guiding patterns Focus on coverage rather than depth Example:
