Brainscape: Learn Faster - Research - 2 views

  • Confidence-Based Repetition These combined concepts of Repetition, Active Recall, and Metacognition work together to create Brainscape’s unique process of Confidence-Based Repetition (CBR). CBR acts essentially as your personalized knowledge stream, where bite-sized concepts are repeated one after another, in Question/Answer pairs, and then re-entered into the repetition queue in intervals based on your confidence in how well you know them. Low-confidence items (e.g. the 1’s and 2’s) are repeated more often until you upgrade your confidence to higher levels.

      "Confidence-based repitition" looks like the direct application of current thinking in neuroscience about how we learn.   I wonder how well it really works?  It's theory based but not truly field tested.....Not quite iterative research-design-field test-tweak loop Dock's Design course prescribes.

    Interesting startup.  Building a learning tool based on the neuroscience concept of "confidence-based repetition."

Does Falling in Love Make Us More Creative?: Scientific American - 0 views

  •  
    Not to worry, this article perhaps is still within the realms of meta-cognition. The author posits, "...because love activates a long-term perspective that elicits global processing, it should also promote creativity and impede analytic thinking." Interesting findings, though I have yet to buy them.
