How Experts Differ from Novices | How People Learn: Brain, Mind ... www.nap.edu/read/9853/chapter/5CachedSimilar National Academies Press Experts' knowledge cannot be reduced to sets of isolated facts or propositions but, instead, reflects contexts of applicability: that is, the knowledge is conditionalized on a set of circumstances. Experts are able to flexibly retrieve important aspects of their knowledge with little attentional effort.
How Experts Differ from Novices https://www.csun.edu/.../2.htmlCached California State University, Northridge Experts notice features and meaningful patterns of information that are not noticed by novices.

WEST COAST ELECTRIC HIGHWAY The West Coast Electric Highway is an extensive network of electric vehicle (EV) DC fast charging stations located every 25 to 50 miles along Interstate 5 and other major roadways in the Pacific Northwest. The Washington State Department of Transportation leads the charge on the Washington segment, the Oregon Department of Transportation heads up the Oregon segment, and the California segment is coordinated by a Governor s Office interagency group. The west coast has a robust EV charging network with thousands of Level 2 charging pedestals and dozens of DC fast chargers.
ELECTRIC VEHICLES BENEFITS Imagine never having to stop at a service station and pump gas. Imagine driving to and from work for pennies per miles.
ELECTRIC VEHICLES BENEFITS Imagine a zero-emission vehicle that needs a fraction of the yearly maintenance cost that a traditional car requires. There will be no oil changes, coolant flushes, air filters, and other tune-up needs.
ELECTRIC VEHICLES BENEFITS Imagine saving money to operate and helping our country lessen its dependence on foreign oil while providing a tax incentive at the same time.
