Transfering of knowledge

For a long time, I have realized that knowledge is not easily sharable.

Knowledge can be recorded down by physical tools like books or electrical tools like e-books. The apparent content can be transferable but the real appreciation of that content is not able to be transferred.

Just think about the time you have to spend to read a mathematical formula to thoroughly understand it so that you can prove it, apply it or modify it. If you are able to apply the knowledge, you are transferred the knowledge.

Apparently, the procedure is a personal issue. You can explain the knowledge to others but cannot give them the appreciation on that knowledge. They must do the task themselves.

If only there were a tool to transfer such understanding and appreciation of knowledge, I were willing to give to my sister.

--writing on the day knowing results of my sister's entrance exam to the school for gifted. Not good. While I could do the paper even better than her.--
