Question 12

is an active style of learning that focuses on helping you learn
how to maximize your brain’s potential. It makes it easier for you to connect new information
with existing ideas hence deepening your memory and retention capacity.

Answer 12

Cognitive learning

Question 13

The ability of the brain’s mental processes to absorb and retain information through
experience, senses, and thought is known as

Answer 13

cognition.

Question 14

is the study of one’s internal processes. These are the things
going on in your brain, such as thinking, attention, learning, problem-solving, perception,
among others.

Answer 14

Cognitive psychology

Question 15

mainly focuses on memorization instead of trying to achieve
mastery in a particular subject.

Answer 15

Traditional learning

Question 16

fundamental aspects of modern cognitive learning:

For cognitive learning to be efficient and benefit you, understand the reason why you are
learning a specific subject in the first place.

Answer 16

Comprehension

Question 17

fundamental aspects of modern cognitive learning:

Cognitive learning discourages cramming of information, which is very ineffective in
education. Having a deep understanding of a subject improves your ability to relate new
knowledge with previous experiences or information.

Answer 17

Memory

Question 18

fundamental aspects of modern cognitive learning:

Cognitive learning strategies help you apply new information or skills in life situations. They
encourage you as you continue to develop problem-solving skills.

Answer 18

Application

areas of the temporal and parietal lobes.

Answer 21

occipital lobe

Question 22

The is concerned with motor programming, including speech, as well as high-level
cognitive functions.

Answer 22

frontal lobe

Question 23

Auditory processing is performed by areas of the ____, much of which is also concerned
with language.

Answer 23

temporal lobe

Question 24

The ________is concerned with tactile and other sensory experiences of the body, and has
an important role in spatial / distance discrimination and attentional functions and it is involved in
language as well.

Answer 24

parietal lobe

Question 25

The theory is that people are either left-brained or right-brained, meaning that one side of their brain
is dominant. If you’re mostly analytical and methodical in your thinking, you’re said to be left-brained. If you
tend to be more creative or artistic, you’re thought to be right-brained.

Answer 25

The left brain/right brain theory
