relate the new information to your prior knowledge
When you relate prior knowledge to new knowledge, you are engaging in a process called schema activation. This involves connecting new information to what you already know, which can help deepen your understanding and memory retention of the new material. By making these connections, you are better able to make sense of the new information and integrate it into your existing knowledge framework.
Thoth was the ancient Egyptian god of knowledge, hieroglyphs, and wisdom.
Why am I reading this? What's my reading plan? What does this passage mean? How does this information relate to my prior knowledge?
no
Thoth was the ancient Egyptian god of knowledge, hieroglyphs and wisdom.
If you see hieroglyphs on a modern camel saddle you can be absolutely certain they are fake and have no meaning. With very few exceptions modern Arab Egyptians have no knowledge of the ancient Egyptian language or the meaning of individual hieroglyphs; any tourist-related stuff is always cheap, nasty and meaningless.
Prior knowledge allows you to make a well-informed hypotheses and a better-planned experiment.
Knowledge of the ancient Romans was preserved by Charlemagne who commissioned monks around Europe to transcribe and preserve Roman manuscripts. Knowledge of the ancient Greeks was preserved by the Greeks themselves. Knowledge of the Egyptians comes from the hieroglyphs in tombs.
The reading strategy that involves combining your prior knowledge with new information is inferences. When you make inferences you use reasoning, which combines you prior knowledge with new information.
