THE FOUR PILLARS OF A CLASSROOM..
Curiosity -Are you generating curiosity?
Novelty –Do you think your children find something new or different in what you are saying?
Attention – Are you attempting to keep all your students attentive?
Motivation – Are you trying to keep them motivated to listen further?
Learning – Is some kind of learning happening consciously or unconsciously?
ALL OTHER INTELLEGINENCES DO NOT MATTER IF YOU DON’T HAVE PEDAGOGICAL INTELLIGENCE?
DOES TEACHING/ LEARNING LEAD TO CREATIVITY?

THE TRINITY
THE THREE CONTRIBUTORS TO LEARNING..
The brain – neurological domain
The mind – the psychological domain
The heart - the ethical domain
BELIEVE YOUR BRAIN..?
...your brain consists of about a trillion neurons! (source: Brain Re-engineering: N.S.Srinivasan)
That's about 166 times the number of people on the planet! (source: Tony Burzan)
It would take you approximately 3,171 years to count them all!(source: E. Chudler)

THE PATHWAYS TO THINKING…
...the number of internal thought pathways that your brain is capable of producing is:
one followed by 10.5 million kilometers of standard typewritten zero's!

UCLA’S BRAIN RESEARCH INSTITUTE
Throughout our lives we use just a fraction of our brain’s thinking ability. We could without any difficulty whatever, learn 40 languages, memorize a set of encyclopedia’s from A to Z and complete the required courses of dozens of colleges.

FIVE STAGES OF LEARNING05/03/2023
BIO-COGNITIVE CYCLES The brain has high-end and low-end
cycles of 90 minutes each We have about 18 cycles a day During the low end cycles the brain
instructs “take it easy” It is important to know the high end
cycles The right and left brains also alternate
in their efficiency
05/03/2023
WHEN IS LEARNING BEST?05/03/2023
WHAT DOES THE RESEARCH INDICATE? 9 a.m -11 a.m – the brain is 15% more
efficient than other times 9 a.m -12 Noon – good for short
memory tasks, rote learning, spelling, problem solving, report writing, Maths, concepts, and science
12 Noon 2 p.m – movement oriented tasks, paper work, singing and art
2 p.m – 5 p.m – literature and history; sports, music and manual dexterity tasks

NEURAL CARTOGRAPHY
Experiment of George Ojemann on a patient suffering from severe epilepsy
Different types of competencies are stored in different parts of the brain
The region involved for language processing- words, verb and grammatical concepts are stored differently
Bilingual people don’t even store the skills in similar places
05/03/2023
HOW DOES THE BRAIN UNDERSTAND WORDS?
Words are nothing but art museums in our brain- in the form of straight lines, circles, and other art forms. There is no such thing for the eye called words!!
05/03/2023
SO SAID GEORGE BERNARD SHAW..
“Words are only postage stamps delivering the object for you to unwrap.”

HOW DOES THE BRAIN HANDLE INFORMATION?
You see the dog and it is converted to electrical signals and The signals are stored in the visual cortex .Light energy is converted to electrical energy and passed on to the brain, Thousands of cortical regions are activated to cause a visual processing
WHERE IS THE INFORMATION STORED? The information is literally sliced
into discreet pieces as it enters the brain and splattered all over the brain
It differentiates vertical lines from diagonal lines and stores them in separate areas
If the picture is moving, the picture and its motion are stored in different places
The place where a vowel should go is stored differently from the vowel itself
Content is stored separately from its context/ container
We have no idea how the brain routinely and effortlessly gives the impression of stability

THE DISCIPLINED MIND
The disciplined mind has mastered at least one way of thinking -- a distinctive mode of cognition that characterizes a specific scholarly discipline, craft, or profession. Much research conforms that it takes up to ten years to master a discipline. The disciplined mind also knows how to work steadily over time to improve skill and understanding -- in the vernacular, it is highly disciplined. Without at least one discipline under his belt, the individual is destined to march to someone else's tune.
THE SYNTHESIZING MIND
The synthesizing mind takes information from disparate sources, understands and evaluates that information objectively, and puts it together in ways that make sense to the synthesizer and also to other persons. Valuable in the past, the capacity to synthesize becomes ever more crucial as information continues to mount at dizzying rates.
THE CREATING MIND Building on discipline and
synthesis, the creating mind breaks new ground. It puts forth new ideas, poses unfamiliar questions, conjures up fresh ways of thinking, arrives at unexpected answers. Ultimately, these creations must find acceptance among knowledgeable consumers. By virtue of its anchoring in territory that is not yet rule-governed, the creating mind seeks to remain at least one step ahead of even the most sophisticated computers and robots.
THE RESPECTFUL MIND
Recognizing that nowadays one can no longer remain within one's shell or on one's home territory, the respectful mind notes and welcomes differences between human individuals and between human groups, tries to understand these "others," and seeks to work effectively with them. In a world where we are all interlinked, intolerance or disrespect is no longer a viable option.
THE ETHICAL MIND
Proceeding on a level more abstract than the respectful mind, the ethical mind ponders the nature of one's work and the needs and deserves of the society in which one lives. This mind conceptualizes how workers can serve purposes beyond self-interest and how citizens can work unselfishly to improve the lot of all. The ethical mind then acts on the basis of these analyses.
