analysis of spacing effect, repetition and feedback approach for a EDU4001 child's learning.

Myth 1. We remember everything we experience

The claim:

• Human brain is capable of remembering every experience went through.
• Any information/event occurred in the past can be retrieved/recalled by the human brain

Facts:

• Studies show that human brain does not remember everything experienced (Kensinger, 2009)
• This neuromyth results in overconfidence, reduced attention and interest, reduced critical thinking capability and lack of concentration

  Recommendations for teaching Practices:

• Develop attention, concentration and engagement among children  (Liono et al., 2021). 
• Ask questions, activate children's mind (interactive learning) (Salmon & Barrera, 2021).
• Use interactive resources i.e. digital media
