Habits of Mind

Habits of Mind

The Purpose of the "problem" is to find out how I solve my problem with prior knowledge, present knowledge, and that in the future sometimes I am right. Producing knowledge is learning, understanding and knowing the information. Reproducing knowledge is knowing how to respond to the information and how to act on it. Habits of Mind are knowing how to respond to problems and to hope that my answer was correct. Knowing how to act on it in a intelligent way. "intellectual Behavior" is the action taken by humans when confronted with problems or uncertainties. They show certain patterns of how we behave. We employ habits of mind with attitude and past experiences. This means we make our own choice to know what habit should be used at that point in time. "Intelligent people" solve problems with intelligent actions and intelligent problem solving. They are 16 attributes that human beings have to behave intelligently. Intelligent people uses some of these attributes to solve problems and other situations. Habits of Mind may apply to me in many different situations. Depending on how I understand it and what choice I make to act on it. Different problems get different actions.

Persistence
One of the habit I want to apply this semester is Persistence. I need to stick to my work. I don't want to get distracted or get off track. I am going to remain focused on the problem , create a strategy to solve my problem and analyze the problem. To have the patience to work on the problem that's unclear. Last semester in school I was very persistent. I stick to my work and passed all my classes and State exams. I want to continue for the next semester coming.

Listening with Empathy and Understanding
A habit that I've always applied and want to continue for the rest of the semester and my life is listening. I am willing to understand and indicate how someone is feeling depending on the person's situation. I can solve and help someone with listening correctly and paraphrasing it right. I listen to my friends situations and problems and try to help and understand their point of view.
