It’s the Same for LearningIt’s the Same for Learning
We only pay attention to what we perceive as useful to us

Brain Research Tells us How People Brain Research Tells us How People LearnLearn
All learning is brain-based. There is no other sort of learning!
Each brain is unique
Everyone will learn in their own way
Neurons need to connect to existing neurons
Need to build on something known
Concrete examples are best
Disconnecting neurons is difficult
It’s hard to undo a wrong concept
(Constructivist theory)
