cross-context transfer

Cross-context transfer refers to the ability to apply knowledge, skills, or strategies learned in one situation to different, often unfamiliar, situations. Essentially, it’s when you take what you've learned in one setting and successfully use it elsewhere, even if the circumstances are different. For example, problem-solving skills from school might help you handle work challenges, or a communication technique learned in a team setting could improve interactions in personal relationships. This transfer demonstrates adaptability and the flexible use of knowledge across various contexts, enhancing learning efficiency and real-world application.
