Brain 2

The brain is your boss of your body. It runs the show and control just about everything you do, even when you're asleep.

The brain is the center of the human nervous system and is highly complex organ. The human brain is located in the head, protected by the skull and close to the primary sensory apparatus of vision, hearing, balance, taste and smell. Brains control behavior either by activating muscles, or by causing secretion of chemicals such as hormones.

The human brain weighs between 3 to 3.5 pounds.
You brain is about 2% your total body weight but uses 20% of your body's energy. 4-6 minutes your brain can survive without oxygen before it stars to die.

When I searching information for my assignment for another subject I found this quite interesting information for shared with others.

How to Memorize – Practice Recalling not Repeating

Memorizing BrainThis is the crucial concept of any type of memorization. The act of reading something you want to memorize fires different connections than the act of recalling. This is how you learn to memorize–your practice recalling, not repeating. This means that simply reading a particular piece of text over and over again is going to be the long road to memorization. You need to let your brain practice recalling the data so it can strengthen the same pathways that will fire when you need to remember the information later on. You can’t practice recalling until the information is at least partially contained in your short term memory.

Learn and Apply

On  the last 2nd Nov, we are given quiz to be sent at the end of the class time. The quiz are about the schedules of reinforcement.  This is the time to apply what I have learned in the last class. My friends and I discuss the problems and then decide which categories it refers to. If I had the answer the other friends try to evaluate whether it right or wrong and we conclude it together.

Learn and Revision...

Actually I should post this entry on 31st Oct but I do not have an opportunity to do that. In the Learning class I have learned about the 'factors for effective use of reinforcement'. On that day I was eager to learn and surprisingly I can takes note what have been explained by madam about that topic. Before this, I only listening and jot down just a few of information. Alhamdulillah, I understand the topic but I need to do the revision to understand it more.
