What is deep understanding?

Remembering pieces of factual information alone is not deep understanding. To have deep understanding is to be able to put the pieces together and to use such understanding to do things (e.g.,

solve problems, create new ideas etc).

The table below shows you some of the things you should be able to do if you have deep

understanding (compare with “surface” understanding) of a topic.

Description of some actions associated with deep understanding

Factual recall Listing of pieces of information in unrelated manner. This is not deep

understanding!

Contrast Show the important difference between things.

Compare Show how things are alike or not alike

Explain Give the meaning of a topic clearly.

Relate Show that the ideas are connected to each other.

Analyze Examine in detail the elements of a topic and how they relate to each other.

Apply Make use of specific knowledge or concepts to solve a problem.

Reflect Show new understanding of something by studying past experience.

Generalize Draw a general conclusion from a number of facts.

Recommend Suggest what is appropriate to do base on a critical evaluation of available

information.

Hypothesize Propose an idea which can be used as a starting point for further study.

Theorize Form general principles of an art or science.

You can only catch small fish at the surface. Therefore, think deep!
