What called my attention in this chapter was how “understanding” is identified. It was said that an understanding is an important interference that it refers to transferable, which involves abstract counterintuitive and easily misunderstood ideas, also is best acquired by uncovering and finally it summarizes important strategic principles in skill areas. According to the last feature of understanding, I also believe that is essential to include strategies when dealing with skills but when this is connected with understanding it is difficult for me to put it into practice. After reading this chapter I realize that it is not a matter of teaching both as separate things, moreover we should reinforce to learners that they should understand the skill´s underlying the concepts, the importance of it, that this will help them to accomplish tasks, and to know which strategies and techniques they can use. If students are aware of this learning process and they put it into practice I believe that the results are going to be remarkable.
Although the book provide me enough information, Is it possible for students to accomplish this level of competence?
