neurons

Submitted by Bruce Williamson on Wed, 07/11/2007 - 1:41pm.
The neurons must be the source of thinking, skill development and learning. So during instruction the hope is that student’s neurons are working as expected without too much competing action in neurons concerned with other ideas. But self firing neurons will be inserting thoughts about the big game, a coming social activity, and countless other distractions. I need to learn ways to help students deal with such off focus ideas effectively while they are trying to learn. This might be where inhibition is helpful. Can inhibition be effectively encouraged?Regards,
Bruce
