Introduction
Welcome to “Learning Hacks 101”! I’m Dr. Conrad Aquino with Monse-Heart Healthcare & Safety Tutoring Institute LLC. Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you study, the information just doesn’t stick? If so, you’re not alone—and more importantly, you’re not at fault. Traditional learning methods might be the problem.
In this session, we’re going to show you how to learn simply and easily because if you’re studying hard, you’re doing it wrong. We’ve collaborated with several experts in the field—educators, teachers, students, and even someone with a PhD in educational psychology—so we could learn how to learn. We’ve gathered all the tips, tricks, and hacks you need to do this the simpler and easier way.
The Problem with Traditional Learning
Traditional learning often involves cramming a lot of information, especially in fields like healthcare, where there’s so much to remember. This method leads to forgetting information quickly after exams. One expert told us that the hardest way to remember is to memorize, and the easiest way to forget is to memorize. This is counterintuitive, so let us show you the right way.
Understanding Your Brain
Our brains are separated into the left and right hemispheres. The left brain handles analytical thinking, words, numbers, and definitions. The right brain manages creativity, emotions, and images. The corpus callosum bridges these two sides. When information passes between the hemispheres, memory is facilitated.
For example, if I ask you what you had for dinner three days ago, it might be hard to recall. However, if I ask you to remember a meal you really enjoyed, you’ll likely recall it vividly because it involved both the experience (left brain) and the emotions (right brain).
The Corpus Callosum Cross
The key is to create connections between the left and right sides of the brain, which we call the corpus callosum cross. This method makes memory retention easier and more lasting. At Monse-Heart, we’ve developed several ways to trigger this cross using mental images, anecdotes, and stories to connect information. This technique ensures you remember and understand concepts deeply, not just memorize them.
Practical Example: Think about your last vacation. Describe it in detail—where you went, what you did, how you felt. Notice how easily the memories come back? That’s because you’re engaging both sides of your brain.
