A learning method in which prior to reading or research, one thinks about what one already knows about the topic, and what questions one has, and what insights one intends to learn. This part prior to external sources is done best in Mindmaps. This way, when these elements are encountered, they can be lodged in memory according to the Memory Hook concept.

The concept of generative Creativity is understanding that 'all knowledge is to some extent already within us' - we just need to tap it. This allows one to connect seemingly unrelated topics, parts of which we are already familiar, and build upon them by logic, feelings, kinesthetics, or other media. Thus contributing to the creation of useful knowledge via engaged agency and Time Binding.
