Why do emotions create such strong memories? Learn how to harness the power of emotion for faster learning and better memory.
These are the seven best methods you can easily practice to learn better and improve memory, based on neuroscience principles and expert cognitive research.
Discover how learning physically changes your brain by altering neuron circuits to form memories, as well as the three best learning conditions for neurons.
Discover how the brain learns by learning about neuron circuits, brain geography, and the flow of information as it turns into a stored memory.
Discover how to learn faster, remember better, and forget less by exploring the psychological basis of learning. Tap into the natural power of your brain.
Cognitive science has ushered in a new era of training that has proven to accelerate learning and build longer-lasting memory. With so many learners struggling to keep up with the wealth of information coming at them, you may be wondering how to implement these latest principles that make learning stick and improve human performance.
In a series of studies published in July of 2020, researchers in the Bjork Learning and Forgetting Lab at UCLA have revealed how to construct true-false questions in a way that enhances learning beyond what previous true-false questions have been able to achieve.
Learning can be counterintuitive. Professor Robert Bjork at UCLA uses the term “desirable difficulties” to refer to conditions of learning that feel worse but wind up being better. Recognizing that challenges during learning don’t necessarily indicate that someone is struggling – and can instead indicate the exact opposite – is essential for doing what’s best for your brain, yourself, and any learners whose training you oversee.
