The Brain
What Part of the Neuron receives an impulse from the previous Neuron before sending it to the Cell Body?
The Dentrites
Do emotions have an impact on learning?
Yes. Only if we are in a good emotional state, we can learn efficiently.
What would be an example for a senctence, associated with a growth mindset?
A sentence, associated with a growth mindset should be encouraging.
For example:"I can do this"
How can Neuroplasticity improve learning?
Name at least 2 key factors.
Repitition, Growth mindset, Challenging tasks, Good emotional state
What do we call the area between two Neurons, where the electric impulse is translated to a chemical one?
The Synapse
Learning is enhanced by challenge.
True or False?
True
What would be an example for a senctence, associated with a closed mindset?
A sentence, associated with a growth mindset usually depicts the act of giving up.
For example:"I will never be able to do this"
Name an example of a real-life learing situation and connect it to brain-based-learning.
An example would be a toddler, thats learning how to walk. The task is challenging, The emotional state is good because of the praise from the parents, the toddler will try over and over again (growth mindset) and the task will be repeated again and again until the toddler can walk.
What part of the Neuron sends the impulse from the Cell Body to the next Neuron?
The Axom
The Brain can only either process wholes or parts, never both simultaniously.
True or False?
False. The Brain does both at the same time.
What does Neuroplasticity mean?
The brain can grow and change
How can we use the knowledge about the brain being able to learn wholes and parts at the same time in our future lessons?
We can connect subjects by choosing a topic that spans over all of them. Thereby we could create connections from each individual subject to the overlaying topic.
What happens to the Synapse when we learn?
The transfer of impulses becomes faster and more efficient
Facts which are understood the best, are embedded in the natural, spatial memory.
True or False?
True
What is the key factor in learning?
A: Hearing what we want to learn
B: Reading what we want to learn
C: Repetition
Repetition
How can teachers reduce their students stress level?
Create a positive learning environment.
Decorate the classroom with the students, Be supportive instead of threatening, set a positive example for your students.
