In this last episode of Neuroscience for Learning, we explore the fascinating topic of how our brains are designed to forget, featuring expert Tina Harris. Discover why forgetting is actually crucial for our memory functions and how we can support and enhance our ability to remember. We delve into the role of the hippocampus, the conductor of memory in our brains, and learn how it sorts and processes information. Uncover the power of emotions and sensory experiences in aiding memory retention and explore effective memory triggers like linking, novelty, and anchors such as mnemonics. Stories emerge as potent tools for memory, combining emotions, senses, and patterns. We also explore the significance of repetition and recall over recognition, understanding the importance of allowing neural pathways to strengthen through spaced repetition. Tina provides practical strategies for designing learning programs that incorporate memory triggers and prevent forgetting. Uncover the secrets to overcoming the forgetting curve and ensuring optimal memory retention, even for less emotionally charged content like work-related information.

In this fifth episode of our captivating neuroscience series on building habits for effective learning. We delve into the fascinating process of habit formation within the brain. In this episode, our expert guest Jaan sheds light on how habits initially start as conscious actions controlled by the prefrontal cortex, and then gradually transition to the automatic, unconscious basal ganglia. Discover the pivotal role of endocannabinoids, neurotransmitters that facilitate this shift by reducing activity in the prefrontal cortex and increasing it in the basal ganglia. Through repetition and the strengthening of neural connections, habits become deeply ingrained. Jaan shares practical insights for applying this knowledge to the real-world challenges of learning at work. Learn how triggered action plans, rooted in specific events, can empower you to overcome old habits and embrace new behaviours. By harnessing the brain's natural reward system, these action plans provide a tangible sense of accomplishment, igniting a positive feedback loop of success and motivation. This episode unveils the secrets to building effective habits that transform your learning experience. Don't miss out! Join us in the next episode for more enlightening discoveries.…
