Researchers Discover Why Learning Can Be Difficult
Researchers Discover Why Learning Can Be Difficult Findings, published in Nature, could lead to improved treatments for stroke, other brain injuries. Learning a new skill is easier when it is related to an ability we already have. For example, a trained pianist can learn a new melody easier than learning how to hit a tennis serve.Continue reading “Researchers Discover Why Learning Can Be Difficult”
