Pre-Work Neuro-Science of Learning

THE NEURO-SCIENCE OF LEARNING

PRE-WORK ACTIVITY

Introduction

As we continue to evolve in the journey from training to learning, let ’s take a moment to consider the following statement:

“Peoples’ brain is actively involved in learning. How we pay attention, how we process information, and how we remember information is all part of this active use of the brain when learning. This is why, as Learning Managers we should spend time learning about how peoples’ brain learns. This concept is known as: the neuro-science of learning. By learning how our brains learn, then we can use this information to create more effective learning solutions for our organization”.

If you agree with that statement, then you will enjoy the upcoming workshop: the Neuro-science of Learning.

In preparation to attend, please complete the pre-work activity described in the next page.
