🧠The brain stores information in two different systems: the neocortex and the basal ganglia.
💡The neocortex is responsible for declarative memory, while the basal ganglia is responsible for procedural memory.
📚Retrieval practice, the act of recalling information from memory, strengthens neural connections and enhances learning.
💤Sleep plays a crucial role in consolidating and strengthening newly formed connections in the brain.
⏰Spacing out learning over time, rather than cramming, leads to better retention and deeper understanding.
