The model is based on two basic viewpoints:

(1) In the learning process, the brain does not passively accept information, but actively understands the input information, that is, actively selects or ignores some information and infers from it.

(2) When constructing the understanding of information meaning, it always involves its original cognitive structure and cognitive process. According to this, Witrock and others believe that the generation process of learning is a process in which learners combine the original cognitive structure with information or new knowledge received from the environment, actively choose attention information and actively construct the meaning of information.

Extended data:

Specific process:

(1) activates the related information in long-term memory to enter short-term memory;

(2) The activated information becomes a part of learning motivation, which makes learners pay selective attention and perception, accompanied by efforts;

(3) preliminarily linking sensory information with relevant information stored in long-term ig'} B, and actively constructing the meaning of new information;

(4) Comparing sensory experience with information in long-term memory to construct meaning;

(5) If the meaning construction fails, return to the sensory information and re-contact with the relevant information in the long-term memory;

(6) If the meaning is successfully constructed, the meaning is understood;

(7) Classifying the understood information from short-term memory into long-term memory leads to the enrichment and reorganization of the original cognitive structure in long-term memory or the formation of a more inclusive new cognitive structure.
