NLP 학습의 4단계 conscious competence model

As music teachers we find it helpful to be aware of the learning model that defines students as at one of four stages: Stage 1 unconscious incompetence Stage 2 conscious incompetence Stage 3 conscious competence Stage 4 unconscious competence The model explains the process and stages of learning a new skill Teachers commonly assume “students” to be at stage 2, and focus effort towards achieving stage 3, when often trainees are often still at stage 1. We find that when we do one day training courses in churches often people who have been playing an instrument for many years and consider themselves relatively able are quite often unconsiously incompetent. This is no slur on them, simply that they need to develop an awareness of the level of their playing and understand where they might be able to improve in order to have any knowledge of progressing beyond their current ability. It is from this self awareness that real progression and learning can begin. Its not that these students aren’t able, its just that while they think they are doing just fine, they don’t have the mindset to do anything differently. We’ve just come back from running some classes at a worship conference and I had several conversations with an older guy who has been drumming for some years. After much humming and harring he decided that our intermediate drum dvds had little to teach him. Now this may well be the case, but I do know from others who have actually watched the DVDs that there is plenty for even very experienced drummers to get their teeth into. All our intermediate DVDs are designed to move you out of your comfort zone – taking you from whatever stage you are at to the next. There is always something new to learn in whatever skill you have. I’m at conscious incompetence about so many things in my life right now and I think that’s a pretty good place to be when you are looking to learn something new. The key is to develop a level of reflection about your genuine abilities and ultimately find a way of moving forward – that may be through a teacher, through practise or some other form of training. Remember, many professional musicians still get lessons.

학습단계(learning state)라고도 하며, 구체적으로 살펴보면, 첫째, 인식하지 못하는 무능단계(unconscious incompetence), 둘째, 인식하는 무능단계(conscious incompetence), 셋째, 인식하는 유능단계(conscious competence), 넷째, 인식하지 않는 유능단계(unconscious competence)를 말한다. 여기서 첫번째 단계는 자신이 무능하다는 사실을 모르는 단계, 두번째 단계는 자신이 무능하다는 사실을 깨닫는 단계다. 따라서 두 번째 단계의 경우는 자신의 무능과 부족을 인식하고 학습을 하기 위해 노력을 하는 단계이므로 학습이라는 차원에서 첫 번째보다 더 진전된 단계라고 할 수 있다.

첫 번째 단계에서는 자신의 무능을 인식하지 못하므로 아무런 학습노력을 하지 않기 때문이다. 세 번째 단계는 두 번째의 학습노력의 결과로 이제 유능단계로 진입하지만 아직은 학습이 성숙하지 못해서 자신의 능력이나 기술을 의식하면서 기술을 발휘하는 서툰 형태의 초보단계라고 할 수 있다. 진정한 학습은 자신의 능력이나 기술 자체를 의식하지 않는 무심의 상태, 즉 무의적 상태에서 그러한 능력을 발휘할 수 있는 마지막 네 번째 단계에서 완성된다고 할 수 있다.
