The Research

The Brain and How it Learns ▰ The brain acts as a dense network of fiber

pathways that consists of neurons▰ The part of the brain that is responsible is

the cerebrum. ▰ When it comes to learning you gain

connections in your neurons, that if the memory is used often, it will be easier to remember it and thus you learn.
