QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
●● The Cerebellum
Answer: Responsible for coordination and procedural learning
●● The Cerebrum
Answer: Where higher cognitive functions like language and problem-
solving occur
●● The Prefrontal Cortex
Answer: Essential for decision-making and attention
●● Cognitive styles
Answer: the concept from neuroscience used to refute the myth of
normality
●● Embodied Mind
Answer: Evidence used to disprove the myth of the brain as a computer
●● Brain Stem
, Answer: part of the brain that connects to the spinal cord ; oversees
important jobs like keeping the heart beating regularly
●● Primary three learning processes
Answer: Encoding, Storage, and Retrieval
●● Encoding
Answer: refers to the initial processing of information, where sensory
input is transformed into a form that the brain can store and use
●● Storage
Answer: involves retaining this encoded information over time, while
retrieval is the process of getting stored information when needed
●● Feedback
Answer: plays a vital role in refining our learning strategies by providing
information about our performance, guiding future actions
●● Metacognition
Answer: involves awareness and understanding of one's thinking
process, enabling learners to monitor and regulate their learning
effectively
●● Retrieval
