Folge vom 05.06.2018When Everything ClicksThere can be a lot of psychological noise involved in teaching. But what if we replaced all that mental chit chat....with a click? This week, we explore an innovative idea about how we learn. It will take us from a dolphin exhibit in Hawaii to a top teaching hospital in New York. It's about a method to quiet the noise. The sort of clutter that can turn learning into a minefield of misery. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Folge vom 29.05.2018Kinder-GardeningMany parents think they can shape their child into a particular kind of adult. Psychologist Alison Gopnik says the science suggests otherwise.

Folge vom 22.05.2018Rewinding & RewritingAll of us are time travelers. We go back in history to turning points in our lives, and imagine how things could have turned out differently. Psychologists refer to this as "counterfactual thinking." This week on Hidden Brain, we look at why some events prompt these "What if?" questions, while others do not.
