Cognitive science and neuroscience are transforming how we learn, offering practical strategies like active recall, concept mapping, and brain-based teaching. These methods help students retain more ...

A figure from the research paper shows that both the model and experimental animals learned a task at a very similar pace. A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and ...

In his 2024 blog on engaging learning titled Attack of the Zombie Learning Theories!, Richard Culatta debunks several myths ...

In his book, The Talent Code (2009), Daniel Coyle describes how Carol Dweck, in her ongoing effort to find ways to enhance student academic performance and to also hopefully advance higher levels of ...

In a recent essay by Sam Altman, titled “The Intelligence Age,” he paints a picture for the future of AI. He states that with AI, “fixing the climate, establishing a space colony, and the discovery of ...

Assistant Professor of Biomolecular Engineering Tal Sharf holds up a specialized chip for recording electrical activity in brain organoids. Artificial intelligence (AI) has proven its incredible ...

It is now understood that the hippocampus is closely linked to learning and memory (Doidge, 2015; Suzuki, 2015). However, this was not always the case. One prominent experiment investigating memory, ...

A new computational model of the brain based closely on its biology and physiology not only learned a simple visual category learning task exactly as well as lab animals, but even enabled the ...

Brain study reveals memories stick when learning triggers a brief “energy emergency” in glucose-sensing neurons.
