QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS EXAMS SET
◉ lesson 2 summary
Answer: learning and cognitive science are multidisciplinary,
revealing interconnected fields. metacognition and critical
feedback enhance learning outcomes and comprehension.
embracing difficulty improves engagement and knowledge
acquisition. research-based strategies bridge theory and practice
in education. cognitive processes like retrieval, spacing, and
interleaving, and metacognition boost memory retention and
learning efficiency. social-emotional learning integrates
ownership and belonging with cognitive processes for holistic
learning.
1- metacognition and critical feedback enhance learning
outcomes and comprehension.
2-cognitive processes like retrieval, spacing, and interleaving
improve memory and retention and learning efficiency.
3- social-emotional learning integrates ownership and belonging
with cognitive processes for holistic learning
◉ cramming
Answer: the practice of studying intensively in a short period
before an exam
,◉ multitasking
Answer: the ability to preform multiple tasks simultaneously
◉ hippocampus
Answer: the part of the limbic system involved in memory,
learning, and emotion
◉ distributed practice
Answer: explores how the brain retains information when
learning is spread out over time rather than condensed.
◉ learning science/debunking the myth of cramming
Answer: It is essential to debunk the myth of cramming and
instead adopt consistent study habits that promote deep learning
and long-term retention. Effective strategies include seeking
approximate feedback during study sessions, leveraging
comparisons in tasks to deepen understanding, and engaging in
collaborative interval training to reinforce knowledge over time.
◉ learning science/debunking the myth of multitasking
Answer: Rather than juggling multiple tasks at once, it's more
effective to prioritize tasks, focus on one task at a time, and assign
dedicated time for each activity. By dispelling the myth of
multitasking, you can improve your concentration, productivity,
and overall cognitive performance.
, ◉ lesson 3 summary
Answer: multitasking reduces efficiency and increases errors, as
the bran isn't designed for it. task-switching impairs cognitive
function and memory retention, lowering attention span.
prioritising and focusing on one task enhances productivity.
cramming results in shallow memorisation and poor long-term
retention, while spacing strengthens neural connections and
promotes deeper encoding, enhancing memory retention.
1- multitasking impairs cognitive functions and memory
retentions, reducing attention span
2- cramming leads to shallow memorisation and poor long-term
retention
3-spacing strengthens neural connections and enhances memory
retentions.
◉ neurodiversity
Answer: recognises and celebrates diversity in nerual functioning
and cognitive styles
◉ neuroplasticity
Answer: the brain's ability to reorganize and adapt in response to
experience
◉ the myth of normal
Answer: there is a "normal" or standard way of learning and
cognitive functioning
