What is learning??
Introduce to brain.
3 pounds, 10 times more energy, complex device, fears, emotions etc….
Chess, maths takes years to learn.
Seeing, hearing, learning, running etc.. complex for machines.
Consciousness
Brain imaging techniques,
Resting some parts are active
Focusedsome other parts are active.
When you learn something new, your brain neurons form new connections (new
synapses are formed), structure is changed.
Brain shifts your focus, when you do or see some thing painful to your mind. But if you
start doing it, then after some time the pain will go (neural discomfort is gone).
Pomodaro principle,
Set a timer for 25 minutes, focus intently, then take a break of 5 minutes. Go to diffuse
mode (meditating/breathing/ )
Repeat the principle, until u get your work done.
We need to learn little a day, it forms a good foundation and forms organised memory
and regaining is easy.
If we cram a lot of things a day, we will not be able to remember it properly.
Working memory is part of memory that has to do with what you're immediately and
consciously processing in your mind.
Working memory is cantered out at pre-frontal cortex.
Working memory holds about 4 chunks.
Repeating same thing over several times in a day is waste, we need to repeat same thing
over several days for long term memory.
Time for synaptic connections, we need to give some time for mortar between bricks to
strengthen i.e., synaptic connections get strong and remembering it after a time will be
easy.
Sleep is necessary.
When brain is awake, it develops toxins in between brain cells.
When you sleep, brain cells shrink and toxins flush out along with the fluid between
them.
When you sleep, you give time for brain to strengthen the neural connections, so it can
go long term.
It also finds solution for problems, by associating with various parts of brain to find
solution.
When you write an exam with no sleep, these toxins in brain are in an increased level
and creates problems remembering.
Interview
1. Exercise like jogging gets him to diffused mode and gives him ideas.
2. Multi tasking can be learnt by practicing.
3. Social meetings increases brain activity than being alone.
4. Talking to creative people increases your own creativity.
5. Smart people are not always successful, passionate people who can go any extent
to get things done and never accept failure and doesn’t feel dejected at setbacks
and always keeps on trying are people who gets success.
6. Something’s are always in front of our eyes, you need a new set of eyes (different
perspective) to know it.
7. Being engaged and little interruptions make boring things little interesting.
Chunking
New concept no sense.
Big picture into scrambled pieces not knowing which piece where,
Making in to pieces
Understanding the chunk is easier and fitting it into big picture is easy.
Working memory octopus with four tentacles bringing memories from long term to
working brain.
It is different from diffuse mode.
