Folklore vs. Science
In A Celebration of Neurons by
University of Oregon Education
Professor Robert Sylwester in 1995
He said : the
information upon which
we make our teachingdecisions is much closer
to folklore than science.

Brain Research
It is important to realize muchof the research on the brain asit relates to learning has beendone on animal models.
The research that is done onhumans consist of the study ofdiscrete tasks in isolation.(Dr. Janet Zadina, Neuroscientist andEducator)
This research can however,give us important ideas abouthow to make learning moreeffective.

It is a Comprehensive Blend
Antonio Damasio, head of the Department of Neurology atthe University of Iowa Medical Center said
"The relation between brain systems and complex cognition
and behavior, can only be explained satisfactorily by acomprehensive blend of theories and facts related to all thelevels of organization of the nervous system, frommolecules, and cells and circuits, to large-scale systems andphysical and social environments. . . .
We must beware of explanations that rely on data from onesingle level, whatever the level may be."

What We Know about the Brain
What we know about the
brain comes from
biologist who study brain
tissue, experimentalpsychologist who study
behavior, cognitive
neuroscientist who study
how the first relates to
the second and
evolutionary biologist.(Medina, 2008).

Following the Research
In Thomas Kuhn's 1962seminal work, TheStructure of ScientificRevolutions, he described
how society respondswhen there is a significantshift in the prevailingparadigm.
Kuhn argued that such ashift is typically met withvehement denial andopposition.

Teachers Definition of Learning?
Learning is the ability to use information aftersignificant periods of disuse
and
it is the ability to use the information to solveproblems that arise in a context different (if onlyslightly) from the context in which the information
was originally taught.

Rest after Learning Improves Recall
The researchers found thatduring rest, the areas of thebrain were just as active asthey were when they were
learning the task
The greater the correlationbetween rest and learningthe greater the chance of
remembering the task inlater tests.Dr Lila Davachi, NYU's Department ofPsychology and Center for Neural Science.

Naps Help Learning
You need to sleep beforelearning, to prepare yourbrain, like a dry sponge, toabsorb new information.(M. Walker, UC Berkley)
A NASA study foundastronauts who napped for27 minutes in the afternoon
improved this cognitivefunctioning on later daytasks by 31% over nonnapping astronauts. (Medina2008)

Caffeine and Sugar (glucose) and
Learning A study reported in the journal Human Psychopharmacology:
Clinical and Experimentalfound that the combination of caffeineand sugar (glucose) enhanced attention, learning and memory.
The conclusions suggested that a combination of caffeine andglucose has beneficial effects on attention (sequential reaction timetasks) and learning and on the consolidation of verbal memory,none of which were observed when the substances were consumedseparately (Grabulosa,2010).
The studies main finding was that the combination of the twosubstances improves cognitive performance in terms of sustainedattention and working memory by increasing the efficiency of theareas of the brain responsible for these two functions. (Grabulosa,Adan, Falcn, and Bargall, 2010)

However, mounting datasuggest interactionsbetween vision, hearing,smell, touch and taste are

61/115
Multi-tasking
Multi-tasking violates everything we know about howmemory works .
There is objective scientific evidence that multi-tasking
impairs learning.
The imaging data indicated that the memory task andthe distraction stimuli engage different parts of the
brain and that these regions probably compete witheach other.

Multitasking
Our brain works hard to foolus into thinking it can domore than one thing at atime. It cant.
When trying to do twothings at once, the braintemporarily shuts down onetask while trying to do theother.

Sleep and Memory
"Periods of slow-wave sleep are very long and
produce a recall and probably amplification
of memory traces. Ensuing episodes of REM
sleep, which are very short, trigger the
expression of genes to store what was
processed during slow-wave sleep."
Sidarta Ribeiro, Duke University, 2004

Sleep and Memory
The MRI scans are showing us that brain regionsshift dramatically during sleep,
"When you're asleep, it seems as though you areshifting memory to more efficient storage regionswithin the brain. Consequently, when youawaken, memory tasks can be performed bothmore quickly and accurately and with less stress
and anxiety."
