1/ Let's talk about how note taking can help you accelerate expertise. Yes, I know how that sounds like. No, this isn't hype. There's some solid cognitive science here, and it has FASCINATING things to say about the nature of learning in messy, real world domains.

This was a real good summation of CFT. More accessible to people who will be put off by the name. I am directionally correct to phrase that expertise in any domain is practice of solving ill-structured problems in them? Also why its harder to transfer the knowledge?

Hmm, I'd say that expertise *in ill-structured domains* is by gathering a larger set of fragments, and then building the ability to combine those fragments in useful ways.
