Novice to Expert
The "Novice to Expert" model describes the progression of individuals as they gain skills and knowledge in a specific area. It outlines five stages: Novice, Advanced Beginner, Competent, Proficient, and Expert. Each stage reflects increasing levels of understanding and ability, from basic tasks to complex problem-solving.
In the Novice stage, learners follow rules and guidelines without much context. As they advance, they begin to apply their knowledge more flexibly and develop a deeper understanding of their field. Ultimately, Experts possess a high level of intuition and can make decisions based on experience rather than just rules.
