Learning is a fascinating process. Throughout our lives, and in many ways, we learn and master various combinations of facts, concepts, and principles.

A great deal of learning occurs in a linear fashion (e.g., formulas, computations, sequential list of facts, rules of grammar).  A graphical depiction of this type of learning could be represented with outlines, flow charts, and tables, illustrating the one- dimensional relationship between pairs of informational variables.

One of the aims of higher education, however, is to promote learning that requires deeper, more critical, thought, including the ability to analyze relationships and make multiple connections between facts and concepts.
