transfer skills of the students
 
 Hi all
 
 I wonder whether you are applying any activity in your classrooms to enhance or create the transfer skills of the students. We have been lingering on this topic for a long time and figure that this is the biggest problem hindering their effective learning and that makes us lose too much time repeating the basics every time when we introduce a new topic. Thanks for your help...

I have heard of this term �transfer skills� before, but I am not entirely sure what it means, nor what you mean by it.  This is the type of discussion this site was made for and not all the recent rhetoric about world events.  Please would you therefore clarify what you mean and I am sure there are many who can comment on this query.  Thank you.

Do you mean the ability to generalise & apply what the students have been learning in previous lessons?

Logos - totally agree about the politics. My apologies if my post above was a little long winded & seemingly irrelevant...
