Abstract Understanding and Learning
Developing an abstract understanding of concepts like algebra is crucial for the brain to make connections between seemingly different experiences. This process, akin to recognizing patterns in machine learning, requires exposure to a variety of problems and experiences to create a mental framework. Generating abstract pictures and solving problems across different domains, as seen in the example of Robert Feynman's intuitive grasp of physics, aids in building this abstract understanding. Therefore, a diverse curriculum that encourages solving problems in-depth and across various subjects can enhance students' ability to develop abstract thinking and intuition.
