2. Stress And the Brain
Inconsistent sensitivity of the memory to interference
Under high stress conditions which is the sole player in
affecting the memory.
Stress alterations in the limbic system underlie the
differences in the quality of the memory formed.
Emotional stimulating events activate the limbic system
and hippocampus is involved in spatial memory
formation and the neuroendocrine regulation of stress
hormones.
3. Stress And the Brain
Behaviors and changes in hippocampal are mediated by the
amygdale.
The amygdale modulates memory formation processes in
other brain regions under emotionally charged conditions
are not required for memory formation but it can influence
the effectiveness of its consolidations.
the amygdala plays a crucial role in spatial memory
formation under stress. The stress-dependent differentiation
in limbic system activation patterns motivates differences in
the quality of the spatial memory formed.
4. Stress And Neuroscience
The neuroscience combines many sciences, such as
biology, statistics, psychology, chemistry, physics, and
mathematics. This combined science has expanded
psychologies prospective on chronic stress and
maltreatment.
Neuroscience can create the right model which provides
effective, comprehensive, holistic and objective approach
towards enhancing academic and social functionality in
children.
5. Stress And Sleep Deprivation
Stress is a side effect of sleep disorder.
There is an evidence for changes in neurotransmitter
receptor related to sleep disorder or deprivation.
Sleep deprivation affects neurotransmitter receptor
function.
Effected areas of the brain and in the hippocampus, do
implicate learning and memory.
6. Impacts & Application
As educators we should elevate stress on students as it could
charge them emotionally which ultimately will affect the
effectiveness of memory formation.
We must follow neuroscience and the ECHO model because it
addresses all children needs by creating a meaningful sessions
and the right activities at the right time in the right place.
If we see a students who are showing signs of SD we must
address that issue immediately. Encourage students to seek
consultation or aid if they develop SD will lead to better
learning experience. A well rested student means a better
learner.
7. Conclusion
Stress factor is a major contributor in any given
environment especially education field and
educators must promote a stress free
environment for their students to achieve higher.
