The facts that are told at the end of the story are in sharp contrast to those that unleash the tragedy that Desiree and her son have to live. Only in the last few lines we discover that her husband knows the true cause of the dark color of the child's skin, which derives from the color of his own mother and has nothing to do with the unknown facts that cover the real origin of Desiree, since his filiation was not known from the beggining.
The irony is graphed in the fact that Desiree's husband could not have ignored that his mother was a dark-skinned woman, as he lived with her for the first eight years of his life and in addition to that, in the end, we also got to know that he was in possession of that letter that informed him the truth, in the probably event that he had forgotten it over the years.
The mistreatment he gave to his slaves was then the most important contradiction, although we can observe that his character softens after the birth of his son, even so having to see him daily was probably a permanent reminder of a shame he was trying to leave behind.
Answer:
This technique benefits me as a learner as it helps me to visualise my method and approach to solving a problem before I go about solving it. This is pertinent especially in problem based subjects like mathematics. In learning, this is also helpful in helping me to internalise the information gathered, for example, being able to mentally link the information together on a concept map in your head or on paper also helps in retaining information. This concept of visualisation and categorisation is similar to the thinking process of computational thinking which involves breaking down the problem and solving it abstractly.
I do not agree that this only works for visual learners. While visual learners tend to be more inclined to this method of processing in their minds or on paper, I feel that everyone uses this method to a certain extent although through a different methodology or thought process.
