Learning at Drew is all about understanding; not just the memorization of information for the sake of passing an exam. 我们相信,传递给学生的信息,如果与学生的生活无关,很快就会被遗忘.

真正的理解是持久的,因此比简单的知道更有用. 理解某事意味着你可以解释它,教授它,并让别人理解它. 

虽然“知道”可能是暂时的,但理解是你要保持的. 它是活动的,可以在多个上下文中应用或使用, built upon, related, extrapolated, and thought about critically. 

Understanding is also liberating. It allows you to engage deeply, to approach solutions creatively, often leading you to discover your voice, your purpose, and your passions. 理解也会赋予你力量,因为它会给你灌输一种能动性,让你有能力将所学转化为有意义的行动.
 
We want you to be able to apply the understandings and skills developed during your four years at Drew in a variety of situations and conditions that you will be exposed to; even those none of us cannot anticipate at this time. 这种理解的概念是网赌最好最大平台教育的核心.
