The brain is the boss of the body. It is needed in order for the body to function on a daily basis. In many cases, it seems as though the brain may be on overload, when in actuality the brain can learn more. I found a You Tube video that explains how the brain learns. Please check it out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgLYkV689s4.
Being new to instructional designing, it is imperative to know how the brain functions, in order to ensure that the appropriate learning takes place, as I design new training materials for anyone (i.e. corporate America and/or educational setting). I believe that it takes a little bit of each learning process in order for the brain to retain the information being presented. More often than not, we are taught that we have one specific way to learn, but in actuality, we learn using each one of the processes, whether using audio, visual or kinesthetic. As a trainer, we have to realize that each one of the processes keep the mind stimulated and will keep the attention of the trainees and/or students. We have to ensure that we create learning programs that will actively keep the brain functioning.
