A simple model of the mind has three parts.<ul><li>The collection of all the knowledge you've built up in your life - Long Term Memory</li><li>The sights, sounds in the situation around you - Sensory Memory</li><li>The Working Memory - This is where elements from long-term memory and the environment are combined to understand and interact with the world ~ Thinking</li></ul>Thoughts from this process that transfer to long-term memory for future use can be considered learning.

How Thinking Works

When you're trying to learn something new, 1. Limited Long-Term Memory - when you don't have enough related knowledge to support the new topic. Energy is spent on learning the basics (like googling new terms), making it frustrating. Common engagement techniques like Visual Demonstrations, Jokes, or Personal Stories can provide a learning environment (also provide distractions). 2. Distractions - can shift focus away from the core goal of learning. 3. Structuring Learning Process - Applying learned knowledge to the world, and being overwhelmed by curiosity.

Struggling to learn stuff every other week.

There's a lot to figure out about the world but it can be hard (or embarrassing) to start from square one. We want to strip away the stigma of not knowing things and bring back the joy in learning. 

Join us as we take you on the journey from question to answer - showing every stumble and success along the way. We never fully know what we will find but when you start pulling on a thread, even the simplest questions unravel a whole world of curiosity.

Answer In Progress is produced by Sabrina Cruz, Taha Khan, and Melissa Fernandes.
