Lilly Bethesda presentation

  1. 1. How the Research on Learning Should be Changing the Way We Teach • Developed by Terry Doyle • Professor Emeritus Ferris State University • CEO Learner Centered Teaching Consultants • Doylet@ferris.edu
  2. 2. • Slides will be available at www.learnercenteredteaching.wordpress.com
  3. 3. Our Students Data Filled World • 2.5 billion gigabytes of data produced each day. • 4 billion google searches daily. • 10 billion you tube videos viewed daily. • While I was reading this slide there were 530,000 google searches and 1,184,000 you tube videos viewed
  4. 4. The Pace of Change Our Students Face Today’s chip when compared to the 1971 Intel processor chip( 4004) • Today’s chip has 3500 times more performance • Is 90,000 times more energy efficient • Is 60,000 times lower in cost ( Brian Krzanich Intel CEO)
  5. 5. If the same pace of change had happened to a Volkswagen Beetle of 1971 • Todays beetle would need to go 300,000 mph • It would need to get 2 million miles per gallon • It would cost 4 cents • ( Brian Krzanich Intel CEO)
  6. 6. The Growth of Knowledge/New Books Published • In 2017 according to United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization there were 2.5 million books published worldwide.
  7. 7. The Speed of Change/3D Printing • In the past creating a new part could take two years from when you first had the idea. • Now using a 3D printer you can design it, send it to the printer and the part appears before your very eyes—you can immediately test it as many times as you want in one day making changes and getting a new printed part and with in a week you have the new part. Luana Lorio director of the GE three-dimensional manufacturing unit
  8. 8. Here is our Professional Obligation We must follow where the research leads us even if it makes us uncomfortable or results in major changes in our teaching practices.
  9. 9. Here is Our Challenge? We as teachers can’t make informed decisions about which teaching approaches or tools to use if we don’t first understand how our students learn.
  10. 10. Here is Our Challenge? To understand how our students learn we must understand how their brains take in, process, and retrieve information as well as the numerous factors that affect these processes.
  11. 11. Key Teaching Questions 1. What Should We Teach? What would make us happy that our students still knew and could apply from the content and skills of our courses a year later?
  12. 12. Key Teaching Questions 2. What can students do on their own? What knowledge and skills do students need our help to learn and what can they look up and learn on their own?
  13. 13. Key Teaching Questions 3. What are the best ways to facilitate our students’ learning? What teaching actions optimize the opportunities for students to master the learning outcomes of our courses?
  14. 14. An Old School View of Learning
  15. 15. Learner Centered Teaching “Many people who had difficulty in school might have prospered if the new ideas about effective instructional practices had been available. (Bransford et. al. p.5 How People Learn, 2000)
  16. 16. Learner Centered Teaching “Furthermore, given new instructional practices, even those who did well in traditional educational environments might have developed skills, knowledge, and attitudes that would have significantly enhanced their achievements.” (Bransford et. al. p.5 How People Learn, 2000)
  17. 17. Definition of Learner Centered Teaching Part One--To teach in harmony with how the brain learns. Part Two-- A Question Given the context of the learning situation ( # of students, time of day, place, difficulty of material) will this teaching action optimize my students’ opportunities to learn?
  18. 18. The Definition of Learning Learning is essentially a process of neurological change; as we absorb new skills and information, neurons form new connections and prune back others, and the brain as a whole recalibrates its networks and activity patterns. (NY Academy of Sciences) www.virtualgalen.com/.../ neurons-small.jpg
  19. 19. Teachers’ Definition of Learning Learning is the ability to use information after significant periods of disuse and it is the ability to use the information to solve problems that arise in a context different (if only slightly) from the context in which the information was originally taught. (Robert Bjork, Memories and Metamemories, 1994)
  20. 20. Basic Finding from Neuroscience Research about Learning It is the one who does the work who does the learning( Doyle , 2008).
  21. 21. What Instructors Don’t Control about the Learning Process • Genes • Family life • Home environment • Stress levels • Sleep • Diet • Hydration • Exercise • Prior knowledge* • Language skills* • Work Ethic • Financial situation • Other priorities • Mindset • Learning strategies/disabilities
  22. 22. What Instructors Do Control about the Learning Process • Perhaps most important-- • Our emotional readiness to teach and the use of emotion to promote learning.
  23. 23. Teachers Control the Use of Emotion • “Emotion promotes brain synchronization automatically allocating everyone's attention in the same direction by generating a similar psychological state that prompts us to view and act in a similar manner.” • ( Nummenmaa, 2014)
  24. 24. Emotion and Learning • “When our students share an emotional connection they have a context that can add to their understanding” • “Emotion = physiological state of the listener to the teacher—making it more likely the listener will process incoming information in a similar manner to how the teacher sees it.” (Nunmmenmaa, 2014))
  25. 25. Emotions and Learning • If we are excited about our content our students are much more likely to be excited about our content
  26. 26. Emotions and Learning • Our brains evolved to see emotional information as important. • Student need to see content as something that can do them good otherwise their brains are designed to avoid things that can do them harm, waste their time, are not relevant or useful. • ( Sharot, 2017)
  27. 27. Emotions and Learning • Anticipation of good things elicits action—we are built to associate forward action with a reward not with avoiding harm. • Rewards are simply more effective than punishment in producing learning. • ( Sharot, 2017)
  28. 28. Emotion and Memory Emotional arousal organizes and coordinates brain activity (Bloom, Beal & Kupfer 2003) When the amygdala detects emotions, it essentially boosts activity in the areas of the brain that form memories (Phelps,2004)
  29. 29. What Else Do Faculty Control • Our level of organization. • The quality of our learning activities, assessments and feedback to students. • The respect we show students.
  30. 30. What Else Do Faculty Control • Our accessibility to students. • The level of challenge in the course and the support to meet that challenge. • Level of preparedness both content readiness and instructional readiness.
  31. 31. Faculty Can Make a Significant Difference Gallup-Purdue Index survey (2014) of 30,000 college graduates found the most important combination of factors in a successful college experience were: 1. A professor who cared about me as a person 2. A professor who made me excited about learning 3. Finding a mentor who encouraged me to pursue my dreams
  32. 32. Relationship with Faculty • The same Gallup-Purdue survey found that success and happiness in life was not tied closely to grades or how much someone learned in college but to their relationship with faculty.
  33. 33. What Do We Know About the Learning Process?
  34. 34. Learning is Enhanced by Movement Natural selection developed a human brain to solve problems of survival in outdoor, unstable environments while in almost constant motion. A brain in motion is a brain better able to learn. (Medina, 2008)
  35. 35. Moving to Learn • A growing body of evidence suggests we think and learn better when we walk or do other forms of exercise. Rhodes, 2013
  36. 36. Movement and Learning • Even mild movement, like walking, sitting on balance balls or working a stationary bike all improve learning. • Try walking discussion groups! Ratey, 2013
  37. 37. Movement and Learning How can we get more movement into our classes?
  38. 38. Attention Drives Learning Attention is almost magical in its ability to physically alter the brain and enlarge functional circuits. (Merzenich and colleagues, UCSF, 2011)
  39. 39. Attention and Learning When we attend to something we are readying various cognitive process we may need for learning. (Merzenich and colleagues, UCSF, 2011)
  40. 40. Keeping Students’ Attention Neuroscientists have a saying: Emotion drives attention and attention drives learning—this makes Attention a key to learning. (Merzenich and colleagues, UCSF, 2011)
  41. 41. Attention without Prior Knowledge • In a recent study by Psychologist Danielle McNamara she found it is not effort, intelligence or attention that reign supreme but what a students already knew about the topic that had the biggest effect on learning.
  42. 42. General Consensus about Attention Capacity Attention capacity refers to the extent that one can allocate their processing resources. One’s arousal level meaningfulness/relevance/interest Type of task new vs. automatic How people allocate attention guided by previous experiences
  43. 43. Emotions and Attention The emotional engagement pathway is effective in capturing and sustaining attention. (LeDoux, 2003)
  44. 44. Dopamine is the Reward for Learning Dopamine is there to motivate the brain to learn new information, or engaging in new experiences. Without dopamine, you would not be interested in learning or trying new things. (LeDoux, 2003)
  45. 45. Short Term Stress Impairs Learning Acute stress activates selective CRH molecules (corticotropin) releasing hormones, which disrupt the process by which the brain collects and stores memories. (Baram,2010)
  46. 46. A Learner Needs a Clear Rationale for Learning Purpose of College To help students become life long learners. To help students gain employment and keep that employment. Meet the survival needs of the learner. College
  47. 47. Developing a Clear Rationale for Learning 1. Why do we want students to learn this? 2. How does it advance students’ skills or understanding? 3. Why is it part of this degree program? 4. How does it help prepare students for their careers? 5. Why is the teacher doing less and I ( the student) doing more?
  48. 48. Developing a Clear Rationale for Learning 6. What challenges would students face without this skill or knowledge?
  49. 49. Why do rationales matter? • Our brain prioritize. • Students are less likely to be bored or prioritize other learning when they understand how the new learning matters to them. (Brown, Roediger and McDaniel 2014)
  50. 50. Fix Prior Knowledge Deficits • The brain’s goal is to find established patterns of learning with which to connect new learning. (Ratey, 2013) • The more prior knowledge a students has the easier new learning usually is for them.
  51. 51. Fix Prior Knowledge Deficits • Deficits in prior knowledge need to be repaired in order to enhance the likelihood of new learning.
  52. 52. Fix Prior Learning Deficits • Assessment of prior knowledge • Tutoring or supplemental work • Online learning activities
  53. 53. Feedback to Students • Giving students regular feedback as to their successes and challenges, failures and errors is crucial for students if they are to improve their learning and study practices.
  54. 54. Feedback to Students • The value of feedback in improving students’ learning increases when it is given quickly following a learning or assessment activity.
  55. 55. Feedback to Students • The more specific and detailed the feedback the greater use it will have to students.
  56. 56. Four Crucial Ways Students Need to Ready their Brains for Learning Hydration • Drink water or other beverages first thing in the morning • Men 125 ounces of fluids per day • Women 91 ounces per day • Drink when thirsty/no 8 glasses a day
  57. 57. Mild Dehydration and Learning • Even mild dehydration can alter a person’s mood, energy level, and ability to think clearly. • Mild dehydration is defined as an approximately 1.5 percent loss in normal water volume in the body. (Armstrong & Lieberman, 2011)
  58. 58. Diet and Brain Performance Diet Learners need a balanced diet and need to eat before learning. • Food(glucose) is the energy source of the brain
  59. 59. Diet and Learning For learners, the research on diet implies that the contents and timing of meals may need to be coordinated to have the most beneficial cognitive effects that enhance learning.
  60. 60. Exercise Improves Learning Readiness Exercise is the single most important thing a person can do to improve their learning. (John Ratey, 2013, Spark, The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain)
  61. 61. Exercise Increases Attention and Concentration • Exercise directly stimulates the dorsolateral prefrontal cortices- the brain regions responsible for: • focus • concentration • organization • planning (Postal, 2015)
  62. 62. Exercise Boost the Brain’s Ability to Learn Exercise increases production of neurotransmitters that help: 1. Motivation 2. Patience 3. Mood (more optimistic) 4. Attention (Ratey, 2013) Energy Calm
  63. 63. Exercise Increases Production of BDNF BDNF (Brain-derived neurotrophic factor ) Enhances the wiring of neurons which underlies all human learning (Ratey, 2008) Miracle Gro for the Brain
  64. 64. ATTENTION PLEASE • “Scientist have discovered a revolutionary new treatment that makes you live longer. It enhances your memory and makes you more creative. It makes you look more attractive. It keeps you slim and lowers your food cravings. It protects you from cancer and dementia. It wards off colds and flu. It lowers your risk of hearth attack and stroke, not to mention diabetes. You’ll even feel happier, less depressed, and less anxious. Are you interested?” • (Matthew Walker, 2017)
  65. 65. It is Sleep! A Key to Your Students Success • There are 17,000 well documented studies that support every claim made on the previous slide.
  66. 66. Sleep, Memory and Learning The World Health Organization has declared a “ sleep loss epidemic” throughout the industrialized world.
  67. 67. Sleep and Learning • Adults need 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night. ( Teenagers 9-10) • (National Sleep Foundation 2016, Dement, 2005)
  68. 68. The Power of Sleep “Research on the role of sleep in hormonal, immunological and learning and memory function suggest that if you don’t get enough(sleep) you could— besides being very tired—wind up sick, overweight, forgetful and very blue.”(Strickgold, 2015)
  69. 69. Immediate Effects of Sleep Deprivation •Poor attention •Irritability •Difficulty with memory •Increased risk taking and impulsivity •Slowed reaction time •Depressed Immune system
  70. 70. Effects of Sleep Loss—Long term • If you routinely get less than 6-7 hours of sleep here is what happens 1. You demolish you immune system—doubling your risk of cancer. 2. Lack of sleep contribute to all psychiatric conditions especially depression 3. It makes you fat—you eat more when sleep deprived 4. It shortens your life span
  71. 71. Car Crashes • One person dies every hour in the United State due to a car crash caused by sleep loss. • Car crashes due to sleep loss out number all crashes caused by alcohol and drugs combined.
  72. 72. Sleeps Affect on Learning and Memory • Scientists have fortified evidence that a key purpose of sleep is to recalibrate the brain cells responsible for learning and memory • So the lessons can be “solidified” and used when awake. • (Diering,2017)
  73. 73. The Brain when Your Asleep • 1. The hippocampus sends all important information to the neocortex for memory storage. • 2. The hippocampus gets rid of all unimportant information so it is ready to learn the next day.
  74. 74. The Brain when Your Asleep • 3. The brain searches for every possible connection it can find for what has just been learned. • 4. The brain consolidates newly learned information with previously learned information yielding new insights to the learner.
  75. 75. The Brain when Your Asleep • 5. The brain practices newly learned motor skills improving the skill level of the learner while they are asleep.
  76. 76. When you don’t get enough sleep • None of these vital process can be completed when you don’t get enough sleep. • You are sabotaging your learning
  77. 77. Learning and Memory are Enhanced when Multiple Senses are Engaged • Humans are powerful visual and auditory learners—evolution made certain of it. (www.human- memory.net/processes_encoding.html)
  78. 78. Learning and Memory are Enhanced when Multiple Senses are Engaged • Each sensory pathway creates its own memory pathways —the more senses used in learning the more chances for understanding and recall.
  79. 79. Teach in a Multisensory Way • By using a multisensory approach to instruction you increase the chances of making connections to students’ background knowledge/memories—thus optimizing leaning opportunities.
  80. 80. Examples of Multisensory Learning Annotation when reading Cognitive mapping Using a smell as a memory cue Drawing a picture/image/diagram Listening while reading the same text (supportive reading) Taking notes Visualizing while listening
  81. 81. Our Brains Seek Patterns • The brain is a pattern seeking device. It seeks to connect new information to existing patterns of information. ( J. Ratey, 2001)
  82. 82. Patterns in Learning • When we don’t recognize the patterns we can get lost, stressed, anxious or fearful. Examples • Reading your first research journal. • Traveling to a foreign country for the first time.
  83. 83. Which of the following slides is easier to remember and WHY?
  84. 84. SLIDE ONE 4915802979
  85. 85. Slide Two (491) 580-2979
  86. 86. What is the pattern in the next slide. Raise your hand when you find it.
  87. 87. Slide One NRAFBINBCUSAMTV
  88. 88. Slide Two NRA NBC FBI USA MTV
  89. 89. Clustering is One Key to Efficient Teaching and Learning Clustering is a type of patterning used to organize related information into groups. Information that is categorized becomes easier to remember and recall.
  90. 90. Organize these Words to Make them Easy to Recall Clustering might help olives, tomatoes, carrots, chicken, lettuce, ham, grapes, beef, strawberries, spinach, pork, plums, mangos, potatoes, onions, fish, duck, broccoli, cheese, cherries, turkey.
  91. 91. Using Clustering to Make Learning Easier • Alphabetical—This is a familiar pattern but it doesn’t help very much. • Beef, carrots, cheese, cherries, etc.
  92. 92. A More Meaningful Clustering • Lunch and Dinner—categorizing the food by familiar areas like lunch and dinner gives it more meaning and makes it much easier to recall. • Lunch a salad including lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, olives, carrots, spinach, broccoli, onions, turkey, ham. • Dinner a fruit salad with plums, strawberries, mangos, grapes and cherries. • Choices of duck, chicken, beef, fish or pork with potatoes.
  93. 93. Patterns in Reading Textbooks 90 % of the time the first sentence of a paragraph is the Main Idea. Main Ideas are almost always followed by significant details— details clarify or support MI’s. Examples make up ½ of all textbook material.
  94. 94. Common Patterns for Learning Similarity and Difference Cause and Effect Comparison and Contrast In students’ own words
  95. 95. Own words equals better learning • Dunlosky and his colleagues investigated ten different learning strategies and one consistent finding was that anything that required learners to put things into their own words resulted in better learning • (Dunlosky, et al., 2013)
  96. 96. Prior Knowledge and Pattern Recognition • Expectations that certain patterns will exist can cause students (and professionals) to fail to see the actual patterns that exist. • Example: • Misdiagnosis of patients
  97. 97. Patterns in Your Content Material • What are the common patterns that exist in the content material you teach? • How do you teach these patterns to your students?
  98. 98. Teaching for Long Term Recall • “Teaching in the absence of learning is just talking” (Thomas Angelo)
  99. 99. Actions that Improve Memory Formation and Recall 1. Attention 2. Prior knowledge 3. Spaced learning 4. Naps and wakeful rest 5. Sleep 6. Wanting to remember 7. Distributive practice 8. Elaboration 9. Interest
  100. 100. Factors Impacting Recall 1. Number of memory pathways 2. The number of senses used in the learning process 3. The strength of the memory 4. The cue that is given to spark the recall 5. Was the information learned as a part of a whole idea or concept
  101. 101. Repetition and Recall • How many of you know the lyrics to songs that YOU DO NOT WANT TO KNOW THE LYRICS TO?
  102. 102. Keys to Remembering Three Rules 1.Repetition over time (distributive practice) 2.Elaboration of material 3. Wanting to remember
  103. 103. How to Strengthen Memories • To strengthen our memories it is vital to recall from memory what we have learned rather than just looking/reading it over. • Every time learning is recalled the memory gets stronger and faster (LTP). (Schacter, Seven Sins of Memory, 2001)
  104. 104. Keys to Memory Formation • The more elaborately you encode new information at the moment of learning the stronger the memory—make it detailed, multifaceted and emotional. • (Squire and Kandel, 2000)
  105. 105. Keys to Memory Formation • The same neural pathways used to process new learning are the same ones used to store it. • So the initial moments of learning are crucial to helping us to recall what we learned. (Squire and Kandel, 2000)
  106. 106. Practice Tests and Quizzes • An excellent way to promote recall practice is through the use of practice test and quizzes. • These can be put online so students can use them when ever they want. • The key is that they ask for recall from memory—so no multiple choice-true and false etc.
  107. 107. Keys to Memory Formation • The quality of our initial encoding of new learning is the greatest predictor of later learning success. (Squire and Kandel, 2000)
  108. 108. Learner’s Mindset and Learning • Dr. Carol Dweck spent 30 years developing the theory of mindset. • A mindset is belief a person has about their intelligence and abilities.
  109. 109. Growth or Fixed • Dweck’s work found that only two belief systems developed in learners. • In each learning situation learners either saw their intelligence as fixed at birth— hence a Fixed Mindset. These learners see people as being born either smart average or below average and that is just the way it is.
  110. 110. Growth Mindset OR • Learners see intelligence as malleable and changeable and that a person never knows how smart they might become. • You get smarter your whole life.
  111. 111. Students’ Mindsets • Our students’ mindsets begin in middle school or even before. • Correlated with the time when students, for the first time, are confronted with more difficult academic tasks.
  112. 112. Students’ Mindsets • Students begin to see clear differences between themselves and other learners. • A mindset is situation specific. Fixed in one area---- growth in another.
  113. 113. Growth Mindset In a growth mindset students believe their intelligence and abilities can be enhanced through hard work, practice and new skills or strategies They see failure as a result of a lack of effort or a poor strategy (not intelligence) and it is something to learn from.
  114. 114. Fixed Mindset In a fixed mindset students see their intelligence reflected in their performance. (Dweck, 2006). The famous—”I’m not good at math.”
  115. 115. Fixed Mindset Fixed mindsets believe they either shouldn’t need to work hard to do well or putting in the effort won’t make any difference in the outcome.
  116. 116. Growth Mindset Students are willing to take learning risks and understand that through practice and effort their abilities can improve.
  117. 117. Mistaking Fixed Mindset for Laziness • It is easy to mistake a fixed mindset for the student not caring or being lazy. • In fact, it is helpful to look for these behaviors as a way to identify a student with a fixed mindset.
  118. 118. Technology and Learning Serious Games A serious game is a game designed for a primary purpose other than pure entertainment. The "serious" adjective refers to products used by industries like defense, education, scientific exploration, health care, emergency management, city planning, engineering, religion, and politics.
  119. 119. Serious Games • There is a growing body of research on the effectiveness of online games as learning tools. In her review of the peer-reviewed material from the last ten years, Mary Jo Dondlinger concludes--- • “there is widespread consensus that games motivate players to spend time on task mastering the skills a game imparts…[A] number of distinct design elements, such as narrative context, rules, goals, rewards, multisensory cues, and interactivity, seem necessary to stimulate desired learning outcomes.”
  120. 120. Serious Games in Higher Education • Give psychology students a way to understand mental illness • Stage a play in the “original” Old Globe Theater • Teach hedge fund management • Accelerate time for science experiments • Teach Arabic language, culture and customs • http://www.adobe.com/resources/elearning/pdfs/serious_games_wp.p df
  121. 121. Virtual Textbooks The Future is Here--Almost Click on any bar in the timeline, and that bar expands to a list of images, which in turn are linked to video about that artist. That's key, because, like a great documentary, it makes learning about what can be a fairly narrow subject into something painless. Art Textbook
  122. 122. Explore Virtual Textbooks • http://plc.cwru.edu/tutorial/enhanced/files/textbook.htm
  123. 123. Simulations and Models • The ability for students to engage in a virtual world using simulations of the real world problems is a big step forward in enhancing learning. • Visit the Concord Consortium
  124. 124. Cognitive Enhancement Meditation The training has shown success in enhancing mental agility and attention by changing brain structure and function so that brain processes are more efficient, the quality associated with higher intelligence (Neuroscientist Amishi Jha of the University of Miami)
  125. 125. Caffeine + Sugar and Learning The combination of caffeine and sugar enhanced attention, learning and memory. Improves cognitive performance in terms of sustained attention and working memory by increasing the efficiency of the areas of the brain responsible for these two functions. (Grabulosa, Adan, Falcón, and Bargalló, 2010 reported in the journal Human Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental
  126. 126. Nicotine Promotes Cognitive Enhancement Nicotine enhances attention— that key driver of neuroplasticity and cognitive performance in both smokers and nonsmokers. Nicotine has significant positive effects on fine motor skills, the accuracy of short-term memory, some forms of attention, and working memory, among other basic cognitive skills. (Martha Farah, University of Pennsylvania) Scientists at the National Institute on Drug Abuse reported in a 2010 analysis of 41 double-blind, placebo- controlled studies.
  127. 127. Adderall has Cognitive Benefits There are cognitive benefits of stimulants like Adderall , at least in some people for some tasks. Enhance the recall of memorized words as well as working memory, which plays a key role in fluid intelligence. (Martha Farah of the University of Pennsylvania)
  128. 128. Adderall Adderall has stronger effects on the prefrontal cortex and can therefore improve concentration and minimize fatigue much more so than caffeine.
  129. 129. Adderall has Side Effects Adderall is not without health risks. Side effects include difficulty sleeping, seizures, high blood pressure, loss of appetite, depression, and many others.
  130. 130. Modafinil • A new analysis of the research revealed it does improve planning and decision making, flexibility, learning and memory, and even creativity. • http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3204567/Smart-drugs- really-work-Pills-taken-fifth-university-students-improve-memory- learning-raising-ethical-questions.html#ixzz3rrs0gfvg
  131. 131. Modafinil • Professor Guy Goodwin, President of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP) said: • “This overview suggests that, on current evidence, modafinil enhances cognition independent of its known effects in sleep disordered populations”.
  132. 132. Modafinil • However, they can have worrying side-effects — including headaches, irritableness, vomiting, irrational behavior, tremors, palpitations and broken sleeping patterns • http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3204567/Smart-drugs-really-work-Pills-taken- fifth-university-students-improve-memory-learning-raising-ethical- questions.html#ixzz3rrsbXCwZ
  133. 133. Cognitive Load and Student Learning 3 Parts 1. Intrinsic load This is the effort required for a student to understand a concept– Teachers can’t do a lot about this. (Sweller, 1988)
  134. 134. Cognitive Load and Student Learning 2. Germane mental load This is the load do to the pedagogy and activity relevant to schema formation. • PBL is high cognitive load • Lecture is low cognitive load • (Sweller, 1988)
  135. 135. Cognitive Load and Student Learning 3. Extraneous Mental load • These are activities not relevant to schema formation. • Distractions, poor communication, poor humor. (Sweller, 1988)
  136. 136. Cognitive Load and Student Learning Information overload is not just a metaphor it is a physical state. When learning is important we need to turn the information faucet down to a trickle. (Nicholas Carr, What the Internet is doing to our Brains, 2010)
  137. 137. Metacognition Skills and Learning • Metacognition consist of two basis process occurring simultaneously: monitoring your progress as you learn, and making changes and adapting your strategies if you perceive you are not doing well. ( Winn& Snyder, 1996)
  138. 138. Suggestions for Building Metacognition • When learners succeed at tasks of any kind, focus their attention on and label the thinking skills they used. • (By permission E. Vockell, Educational Psychology)
  139. 139. Suggestions for Building Metacognition • Provide feedback on the degree to which learners have evaluated their comprehension correctly. • Emphasize not only knowledge about strategies, but also why these strategies are valuable and how to use them.
  140. 140. Suggestions for Building Metacognition • Be aware that students may not transfer thinking strategies far from the original setting, unless they are guided to do so. • (By permission E. Vockell, Educational Psychology)
  141. 141. Slow Down and Take a Break • “ when you pause “ you start to reflect, you start to rethink your assumptions, you start to reimagine what is possible, and most importantly you start to reconnect with your’ most deeply held beliefs. Once you have done that you can reimagine a better path.” Dov Seidman, CEO of LRN ( advises global business on ethics and leadership)

  • Serotonin is the principle mood neurotransmitter. People with low levels are more inclined to suffer from depression. Modern antidepressants act by increasing the amount of available serotonin by inhibiting the reuptake of serotonin.
    Dopamine is involved in control of movement and its deficiency is implicated in Parkinson's disease. With norepinephrine, dopamine also increases alertness. Physical exercise seems to increase concentrations of these neurotransmitters.
