Everything Bad Is Good for You by Steven Johnson | Quarterly Conversation - 0 views

  • IQ scores have been increasing at an astounding and regular rate for the past 75 years.

      Would others agree that this has to have something to do with the amount of time and energy we are increasingly afforded to spend on education? We are becoming smarter about how to education students. Therefore people can pass down those developmental hand-ups to their children, so on and so forth for 75 years.

      We also live in a more complicated world than people did 75 years ago, which requires people's minds to adapt to the changes that have come our way.

      This is scary to think, but very true. The internet is turning us into fast paced people who do not learn things in depth. This could not only harm our learning, but our long term memory if we are not properly storing information.
  • comprehension declined as the number of links increased
  • When the load exceeds our mind’s ability to process and store it, we’re unable to retain the information or to draw connections with other memories.

  •  
    In this article, I argue that today will always be the best day to try or learn something new. You can't teach an old dog new tricks (well you can, but it's hard) Neuroplasticity is the brain's way of reprogramming itself based on what it does. Your brain actually changes structure with new experiences.

Naming the Theories in Use - 1 views

  •  
    While at #PS2015, a graduate student at BYU asked me, "What other theories are being applied in education?" That may be the best question of the year and one that every school and district leadership team should ask themselves. So, what theories are being applied to public education?
