"I know stuff"- Anonymous
In the book Tell to Win, Michael Wesch KS University IT expert is credited with the saying that meaning plus memory is what makes knowledge minus the ability. I re-wrote it as an equation:
meaning+memory=knowledge-ability
What quickly became obvious is that the equation could be rewritten as:
meaning+memory+ ability =knowledge
or that
knowledge= ability + memory + meaning
Pretty cool. Does it makes sense? That knowledge is the result of using your abilities, past memories, and providing meaning to new information. To me it does.
Maybe there are some missing ingredients. Maybe not?
Today's question is:
"What is your knowledge based on?"
