Curiosity
The document discusses the importance of curiosity and imagination in learning. It defines curiosity and how it differs from imagination. Curiosity keeps the brain active and open to new ideas. Asking thoughtful questions is important for learning. The document contrasts basic questions (who, what, where, when, how) with more thoughtful "genius questions" that start with what if or I wonder. Curiosity helps develop connections in the brain that aid learning, retention and information retrieval. The document encourages students to cultivate curiosity by asking questions about topics they find uninteresting.
