Examples

    another known language to facilitate acquisition. For example since
    Spanish and Italian are both Latin based, if Spanish is know then a person
    learning Italian can transfer their known information and skills from
    Spanish onto the new language, Italian.
  2. If a baby or child needs artificial respiration, a learner can adopt
    flexibly in his/her knowledge of artificial respiration for adults and
    apply the same knowledge.
  3. Today many people are comfortable with having online classes because
    they can apply their skills in browsing the internet, emailing loved
    ones and playing video games; then applying this knowledge to the online
