Overcoming Challenges in Corporate Training: A Framework for Effective Training Initiatives
Analyses common challenges in corporate training, such as budget constraints and employee resistance, while proposing strategic solutions to enhance effectiveness and ROI.Neuroeducation: understanding neural dynamics in learning and teaching
Explores the intersection of neuroscience and education, highlighting how understanding brain plasticity can inform effective teaching strategies and enhance learning outcomes through interdisciplinary collaboration and technology integration.Understanding cognitive load in digital and online learning: A new perspective on extraneous cognitive load
Examines cognitive load theory’s influence on educational psychology, highlighting challenges posed by design factors in digital learning that induce extraneous load, while proposing a strategy to balance cognitive load and align it with desired learning outcomes.Retrieval practice: Beneficial for all students or moderated by individual differences?
Investigates whether individual differences in personality traits and working memory affect the benefits of retrieval practice, finding that the testing effect is consistent across varying traits and memory capacities, suggesting it benefits all students.Retrieval practice facilitates memory updating by enhancing and differentiating medial prefrontal cortex representations
Explores how retrieval practice enhances memory updating by engaging the medial prefrontal cortex, strengthening new memories and reducing interference from old ones, thereby facilitating memory integration and consolidation.The magical mystery four: How is working memory capacity limited, and why?
Discusses the importance of working memory storage capacity, highlighting the central memory store's limit of 3 to 5 meaningful items in young adults, and explores its significance, variability, and underlying mechanisms.Evidence-based actions for maximising training effectiveness in corporate E-learning and classroom training
Examines the application of evidence-based actions to maximise training effectiveness in corporate settings, finding that while actions were commonly implemented in e-learning and classroom training, there is room for improvement, particularly in post-training support and addressing the needs of older workers.The neuroscience of learning: beyond the Hebbian synapse
Compares associative learning theory and information-processing perspectives on learning and memory, arguing that long-term potentiation does not account for associative learning properties, and calls for a shift in the conceptual framework of neuroscience to better integrate complex computations in learning mechanisms.We feel, therefore we learn: The relevance of affective and social neuroscience to education
Explores how neuroscience advances reveal the critical role of emotion in learning, attention, memory, and decision-making, proposing that emotional processes are essential for transferring skills from the classroom to real-world applications, and calling for innovative learning environments based on these insights.The mere presence of a smartphone reduces basal attentional performance
Tests the hypothesis that the mere presence of a smartphone reduces cognitive performance, finding that smartphones use limited cognitive resources, leading to lower attention and concentration, with practical implications for everyday life.
