  • Time shapes knowledge and how we work with it.
  • Important changes have emerged regarding the ideas and information available to us, and the ways we can engage with them that are worth considering
  • Digital technology allows a range of visual, audio and word based information and ideas. On a daily basis we can access podcasts, vlogs, videos, audio recordings and animations to name just a few.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • We are reading more than ever (three times more since the 1980s) but interactive components allow us to work with and develop information in many different ways
  • It’s common for children today to be able to create a multimodal presentation for a school project which has writing, images, video, sound, animation features and hyperlinks to websites. The days of photocopying information for a project and gluing it to cardboard are long gone
  • A key skill in our current era is the ability to draw on lots of different types of information and bring them together to work out a solution, to gain a new perspective on a situation or to develop our knowledge of something
  • If remembering and understanding are linked to deliberate action then editing some footage or composing a script for a YouTube clip needs to be well thought through. It’s not about if it was written on paper first but just that deep thought has been given to it
  • Also if the argument for turning back to books is about not being distracted by online ads or checking our social media or email accounts, then it’s important that we learn to work well in our e-society. Technology is not going away
  • Some may suggest that we are losing opportunities to learn because of our love affair with our screens. But what’s important today is understanding and managing information, and then developing new knowledge from that. Remembering that information simply isn’t important anymore

Each structure has information on brain disorders, brain damage, case studies, and links to modern neuroscience research. Ideal for students, researchers, and educators in psychology and biology."
