Visualization of Chunks in Chunking Strategy
Visualization refers to learners' understanding and grasping of the basic contents of materials, such as laws and characteristics, transforming meaningful memory materials into chart materials and schema materials, or organizing meaningless materials into related chunks. According to the relationship between material contents, visual chart blocks can be divided into similar classification charts, comparative classification charts and subordinate classification charts. In addition to using charts to illustrate the internal relations of materials, charts can also be used to present the implicit structural relations of materials, such as relationship diagrams and process diagrams, so as to visualize materials and promote the overall grasp and memory. The "knowledge tree" designed by Wei Shusheng, a special-grade teacher, is to classify trivial Chinese knowledge intuitively with diagrams. Some materials don't necessarily have meaningful connections. We should endow mechanical and meaningless materials with certain meanings by homophonic methods, or endow irrelevant materials with artificial connections by associative methods, thus forming image chunks. For example, many students often can't remember the names of Lu Xun's essays, and some teachers use formulas to reassemble the names of Lu Xun's essays into easy-to-read and easy-to-remember chunks: "Hot air covers the grave; Three idleness and two hearts, north and south; Lace is romantic and pseudo-free; Two-part union set, intermediate set and external set; Take compensation outside the set; Translate the preface and postscript collection of ancient books. " In this way, the names of sixteen short articles are processed into six related chunks, and students can easily remember the names of these short articles.
