Entry #6 What are three types of comprehension, and how do these differ from one another? Provide one example of each type.

Comprehension don't means the capacity or the action to understand something, It involves  memory, cognition and metacognition.Memory is the process to retaining information. Cognition is the ability to process information . Metacognition is a higher thinking process.

 We have three types of comprehension; but also We have to know how to apply it, those types of comprehension are:
1.  Literal:
Is a "fact-based evidenced"  of comprehension, For example students benefit from visual things.

2. Aplied:
Is "Comparison and Contrast" it is a result to making conections from our own experiences or things about that i read or heard.
For example if we are teaching about an event that happened like a war , we can read  Trojan book.

3. Implied:
Is “inferential comprehension” it's based on context or illustrative material being presented in oral, visual, tactile, or kinesthetic formats. For example: we can use books or videos about  the Civil war in El salvador because they can learn better.


As  teachers, we want our students to  learn and understand, our objective isn´t memorization, our objective is the students internalize and understand that they learned.
