1. PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING

Why do we learn?

When do we learn?

How did you learn?

FOUR IMPORTANT PRINCIPLES OF LEARNING:

Learning through exploration

Memory needs meaning

Learning is cumulative

Memory needs repetition

THE NEURO-SCIENCE OF LEARNING

THE NEURON

THE NEURON

A neuron is a nerve cell involved in the transmission of messages.

A brain has around 100 billion neurons

1 Neuron can be connected to 1000 others

They can exhibit or inhibit other neurons

NEUROLOGICAL ACTIVITY

NEUROLOGICAL ACTIVITY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR:

• ATTENTION • MEMORY • SENSING • EMOTIONS

ALL OF THE ABOVE ARE PROCESSES INVOLVED IN LEARNING.

ATTENTION

ATTENTION At a neurological level, attention has not been fully defined scientifically yet. However, there is evidence about two types of processing in attention:

FOCUSED ATTENTION

DIFFUSED ATTENTION

THE PRE-FRONTAL CORTEX

DR. BARBARA OAKLEY – FOCUSED VS DIFFUSED MODE MODEL

ATTENTION

Reinforced thoughts are solid patterns. New thoughts are new weak patterns

Diffused mode allows for wider range of patterns to be formed.

Let’s use an allegory from Dr. Barbara Oakley to explain Focused Vs Diffused Attention.

MEMORY, SENSATIONS AND EMOTIONS
