Expert learners

Learning changes the structure of the brain.

Individuals with a a variety of skills had an increase in grey matter and was observed to have increased within as little as a week.

Connects old information with new

Reduces cognitive load

Memory plays an essential role in learning to complete complex tasks

Group Members: Emmauel,Salvatore, Anthony, Josue, Anakany

The unique individuals process knowledge as:organized, self-regulated,

Having self-awarness; having: beliefs, motivation, effort, persistence, have been proven successful key points for learners

Increases grey matter and helps with brain rewiring.

Control of learning and thinking

A key concept to academic achievment "thinking about thinking".

Metacognition

The affect of recall from long term memory is within the need strengthening coding.

The brain is constantly changing.

The Wonders of the Brain

Recognizes growth and reorganization of neural networks

An increase in myelin creates: speed, realibility, coordination arrival times of signals needed to complete tasks.

Such activities that help with brain plasticity are: sleep, good nutrition, social interaction, practice, the constant activity of asking questions, introduction to new material, etc

Very goal-oriented, and plandful; the majority of individuals fall within the Novice learner
