Wired_2.0_Learning-Environment_Rabobank_10092024.pptx

During this talk, you'll learn how to tweak the factors that determine the success rate of storing and retaining new information.



🎓 Among other things, we’ll cover what has been scientifically proven to be the ideal learning blocksregarding time and content.

👁️ We’ll discover how to create an environment that improves our focus and keeps us in the “flow”.

💻 Additionally, we’ll touch upon the impact that AI has on your learning capacities.



As we navigate the ever-changing landscape of software development, this knowledge will empower you to enhance your own learning curve and, just as importantly, extend a helping hand to those on their own learning path.

This talk is a perfect follow up of the previous “Wired! How your brain learns new (programming) languages”- an award-winning talk at Devnexus Java Conference and must-watch talk that Simone presented last year for Ignite Community.

19. Confabulation “During retrieval, memory can unconsciously fabricate the missing or incomplete information by selecting the next closest item it can recall.” – D.A. Sousa

20. Every time we recall information from long-term memory into working memory: we relearn it.

Which parts did you reproduce partly? Which parts did you miss entirely? Do you understand why you missed those lines? Do those lines contain programming concepts that are unfamiliar to you? Do those lines contain domain concepts that are unfamiliar to you? Compare with someone else  code-reading-club # Wired
