- How might The Hebbian Principle be applied to reading engagement?
- How does Hebb's Theory relate to educational practice?
- Why should we care?
Our Existing Questions are:
We should care at least about the basics of the hebbian theory because it will help us understand questions of how are brain works during reading and also give us an answers on how to make your reading better, which is by practicing if theses thought patterns continue for a period of time it can turn into a habit (hebbian theory.)
ReplyDeleteThis principle can be applied in reading engagement by knowing, as we're reading, what process our brain goes through to allowing us to picture and understand what the text is about. Like, when you're reading a fictional book and you can picture what the characters look like because of the way the book describes them. Your brain can use the information given to it to picture what the author is trying to show/describe to you. Or when your in math class and there is some ridiculous scenario about calculating the price of 43 watermelons, 17 pairs of jeans and 25 shirts and wonder how you're able to picture this. (Because, let's be honest there is ALWAYS some kind of problem like what I just described) Well with this, now, you can understand a little more about what you're brain does to process information.
ReplyDeleteWe should care because this principle helps us to understand what process our mind goes through to create the thoughts we have. From understanding a lesson in school, to reading a book, to making an original picture, to daydreaming. It's not just magic, it's science. it's our brains using the information it has to create new ideas and that leads us to creating or discovering different things.
