Do You Know?
The brain is a parallel processor. It processes parts (specific
stimulus) and wholes (meanings, ideas, patterns, actions)
simultaneously.
The brain’s processing functions are designed to make meaning of the
sensory experiences.
Emotional and social interactions are so fundamental to the brain’s
function, that positive experiences can enable and augment learning.
Conversely, painful or traumatic experiences can deter or delay
learning. No cognitive paths to the brain bypass the emotional and
social circuits.
