I take away two concepts that this research suggests. One is support for experiential learning. The other is that the experience of struggling to find a solution is a key ingredient, which is what other research suggests is important for learning life lessons. -Lon

Neuroscience myths are plentiful. From thinking we’re either left-brained or right-brained, to believing we stop learning at three years old: the brain has worked hard to convince us untruths about… brains. As we uncover more about neuroscience, these myths are slowly unravelling.

A slowly growing body of research suggests that our common aversion to failure is itself a failed strategy. Being curious about our mistakes is the royal road to learning. And mindful techniques can help. Via John Evans, GwynethJones

Do your learners know what happens when the read, or when stories are read to them. This post, from the Open Education Database, provides a visual (that you may want to print out and share with learners and their families) as well as 10 ways that reading helps your brain workout. The list is below. * We make photos in our mind, even without being prompted. * Spoken word can put your brain to work. * Reading about experiences is almost the same as living it. * Different styles of reading create different patterns in the brain. * New languages can grow your brain. * Your brain adapts to reading e-books in seven days. * E-books lack in spatial navigability. * Story structure encourages our brain to think in sequence, expanding our attention spans. * Reading changes your brain structure (in a good way)). * Deep reading makes us more empathetic. To learn more about each of these points click through to the post. |
