Neuroscience for Learning - Your brain in designed to forget

In this last episode of Neuroscience for Learning, we explore the fascinating topic of how our brains are designed to forget, featuring expert Tina Harris. Discover why forgetting is actually crucial for our memory functions and how we can support and enhance our ability to remember. We delve into the role of the hippocampus, the conductor of memory in our brains, and learn how it sorts and processes information.

Uncover the power of emotions and sensory experiences in aiding memory retention and explore effective memory triggers like linking, novelty, and anchors such as mnemonics. Stories emerge as potent tools for memory, combining emotions, senses, and patterns. We also explore the significance of repetition and recall over recognition, understanding the importance of allowing neural pathways to strengthen through spaced repetition.

Tina provides practical strategies for designing learning programs that incorporate memory triggers and prevent forgetting. Uncover the secrets to overcoming the forgetting curve and ensuring optimal memory retention, even for less emotionally charged content like work-related information. Apply Tina's expert tips to support your memory and enhance your learning experience.
