====== Learning ====== [[Lecture-based learning]] see [[Deep learning]]. see [[e Learning]]. see [[Learning curve]]. [[Problem-Based Learning]] see [[Machine learning]]. ML algorithms are divided into two types: supervised learning and unsupervised learning. see [[Supervised learning]]. see [[Unsupervised learning]]. see [[Clinical Learning Environment]] ---- Since memories are postulated to be represented by vastly interconnected neural circuits in the brain, [[synaptic plasticity]] is one of the important neurochemical foundations of [[learning]] and [[memory]]. ===== Fact-based learning ===== Fact-based learning is an educational approach that emphasizes the acquisition and understanding of factual information. It involves the process of memorizing and recalling facts, [[figure]]s, [[date]]s, [[definition]]s, and other specific details. This learning method focuses on building a foundation of [[knowledge]] by providing students with accurate information and encouraging them to retain and reproduce it. Here are some key characteristics and benefits of fact-based learning: [[Memorization]]: Fact-based learning relies on rote memorization to retain information. Students are expected to commit facts to memory and recall them when needed. Content-based: This approach is content-driven, with a focus on delivering accurate and verified information. It often involves textbooks, lectures, and other instructional materials that present facts in a structured manner. Foundational knowledge: Fact-based learning aims to provide students with a solid base of factual knowledge. It helps establish a foundation upon which further learning and critical thinking can be built. Recall and reproduction: Students are expected to demonstrate their understanding by recalling and reproducing facts accurately. Assessments often involve [[test]]s, [[quizz]]es, and [[exam]]s that evaluate memorization and recall abilities. Factual accuracy: Fact-based learning emphasizes the importance of accurate and reliable information. It encourages students to verify sources and avoid misconceptions or falsehoods. Broad coverage: This approach typically covers a wide range of topics, disciplines, and subject areas. It seeks to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of various factual domains. While fact-based learning has its merits, it is important to note that it is only one aspect of [[education]]. [[Critical thinking]], [[problem]]-solving, and [[creativity]] are equally essential for a well-rounded education. Therefore, a balanced approach that combines fact-based learning with other teaching methods is often considered more effective in fostering comprehensive learning and understanding. ===== Hippocampus Function ===== see [[Hippocampus Function]].
