Domain-relevant (to remember more information in a
particular area)
2. Experts classify problems differently
3. Experts organize their knowledge differently
Fighting fires – Many different situations and structures.
Over time you develop experience of what happens in
these situations. You can go into a new situation based
on an old situation and use the older knowledge to solve
new problems
Deliberate Practice
It takes hours of practice and experience in a domain to
become an expert
How do you get there? Two paths
The more you do something the easier it will become
2.

Document Summary
Domain-relevant (to remember more information in a particular area: experts classify problems differently, experts organize their knowledge differently. Fighting fires many different situations and structures. Over time you develop experience of what happens in these situations. You can go into a new situation based on an old situation and use the older knowledge to solve new problems. It takes hours of practice and experience in a domain to become an expert. The more you do something the easier it will become: progressive problem solving (leads to expertise) Now that i am good at this area, now i can get better in another area. You get better by increasing the challenge: problem reduction (leads to experienced non-expert) Continue on the original problem (task) until it gets easier and easier. You can have 20 years of experience or one year of experience 20 times. This information gives clues as to how to improve performance further (engage problem solving)
