- 3. Creating a Safe Learning Environment | When learners are in a state of relaxed alertness, they are more open to suggestion and can learn more effectively
- 4. The ‘Triune Brain’ Theory | ‘ Paleomammalian’ brain processes emotions and long-term memory ‘ Neomammalian’ brain (80% of our brain mass). Deals with complex social interactions, abstract thought, advanced intellectual tasks and the generation of ideas ‘ Reptilian’ brain responsible for self-preservation
