Memory is the essential brain function that allows us to develop a sense of self, to store memories, to reason, to understand, and of course to learn. We speak about it in the singular form, but it would be more correct to evoke it in the plural one. We understand now that it is composed of different systems which, although in constant interrelationships, are distinct and autonomous due to the nature of the information they store and the brain networks they use.
This complex and mysterious organ fascinates us. Thanks to the new medical imaging devices, functional MRI in particular, it has revealed itself a little more in recent years.
Neuroscience has shed new light on how our brain learns. Although much remains to be explored, we now know that some beliefs may be forgotten, while others deserve renewed interest. Here are 7 myths passed through the filters of neuroscience:
11.7: This is the number of teslas corresponding to the magnetic field of the most powerful...
While there are several valid teaching methods, the latest discoveries in neuroscience have identified four factors necessary for successful learning. Compatible with the freedom and experimentation that remain important in pedagogy, these guiding factors can be integrated into various learning approaches.
According to scientists, the brain’s memory storage capacity is close to...
To succeed on a learning path, the learner must engage and invest fully in it. However, in the context of online training, as everyone progresses in their own "time & space," the risk of feeling isolated can affect the motivation needed to persevere.
No matter where or when it occurs, learning, as a process, is an important component of our lives, and trying to find better ways of going through it generated many significant improvements over the years. It also generated a myriad of false facts, and without further ado, these are our top 5 learning myths that are losing touch with reality.
Scientists have recently mapped the journey of a thought through the brain, and the craze for anything related to neuroscience continues to grow. Like many "fashionable" trends, it has been the subject of some drifts, with the prefix "neuro" being misused multiple times for marketing purposes.
