Subclaims¶

q1 i? Each learner develops a unique graph reflecting individual experiences, artifacts, and development, and this uniqueness creates conditions for creative problem solving and the emergence of new ideas. → Smadar Szekely 2018

Evidence¶

Smadar Szekely 2018¶

Smadar Szekely, Judith Gal-Ezer, and David Harel. (2018). Rethinking Higher Education: From Fixed Curricula to Learnity Graphs. J. ACM 37, 4, Article 111. https://arxiv.org/abs/2608.08543 doi:10.48550/arxiv.2608.08543

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

Authors' interpretation in the Implications section (type e). The article argues that novel combinations of knowledge, experiences, and perspectives create conditions for creative problem solving; no empirical evidence is offered for this claim.

"In a world where knowledge is increasingly accessible and shared, value shifts from the possession of knowledge to the unique structure of an individual's learning trajectory."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Problem Solving — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes
