Be sure to take a look at "Brain Rules" by John Medina.
http://brainrules.net/ http://brainrules.net/
The short version:
EXERCISE | Rule #1: Exercise boosts brain power.
SURVIVAL | Rule #2: The human brain evolved, too.
WIRING | Rule #3: Every brain is wired differently.
ATTENTION | Rule #4: We don't pay attention to boring things.
SHORT-TERM MEMORY | Rule #5: Repeat to remember.
LONG-TERM MEMORY | Rule #6: Remember to repeat.
SLEEP | Rule #7: Sleep well, think well.
STRESS | Rule #8: Stressed brains don't learn the same way.
SENSORY INTEGRATION | Rule #9: Stimulate more of the senses.
VISION | Rule #10: Vision trumps all other senses.
GENDER | Rule #11: Male and female brains are different.
EXPLORATION | Rule #12: We are powerful and natural explorers.
- da5e 16y agoGood stuff! But just for fun: 1. Sitting on your ass programming for long periods of time develops brain power too. 2. We've held on tightly to our lizard brains too. 3. Faulty wiring can be creative if it's faulty in the right way. 4. We do pay attention to annoying boring things. 5-6. Imagine to remember 7. Sometimes it takes an all-nighter to get your brain over the hump. 8. True, although not always a bad way. 9. Or isolate to concentrate and build myelin. 10. Only if you're a visual learner. 11. Viva la difference 12. We are also inveterate couch potatoes.
- alanthonyc 16y agoCool stuff. I'm thinking of getting the book. Is it sufficient to get just the book itself (going to do it via my Kindla app) or should I spring for the DVD?
