Who would have thought it—that I’d get something of value from a book by Dan Brown? And yet that is the case.
In Deception Point, on the 29th page I read that someone works as a gister. Gisting is data reduction, distilling the essence of complex texts into concise briefs. Well, that’s something that I do, or have done, with respect to the information surrounding language acquisition.
I’ll point that out in the unit standard which I’m working on. I’ve glossed over so much material that there’s no way for me to accurately reference where my ideas all originate.
