MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

Students learn best when instruction is tailored to their preferred learning style (e.g., visual, auditory, kinesthetic).

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

While individual preferences exist, there's limited evidence to support the idea that teaching to a specific learning style significantly improves learning outcomes.

2.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

People are born with a certain level of intelligence, and it cannot be changed.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

Intelligence is not static; it's a dynamic and malleable quality that can be developed through effort, learning, and experience.

3.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

People can effectively multitask and maintain focus on multiple tasks simultaneously.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

Multitasking often reduces efficiency and can lead to errors and decreased productivity. That is because what we are doing is really called switch tasking. That means stopping one activity to begin another and then going back to the initial activity.

4.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

Drilling and rote memorization are outdated and harmful.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

While overreliance on rote learning can be problematic, memorization still plays a role in building foundational knowledge, especially in math and language. It’s most effective when combined with deeper learning strategies.

5.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

Some of us are “left- brained” and some are “right-brained” due to hemispheric dominance and this helps explain differences in how we learn.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

Modern brain imaging (like fMRI scans) reveals that almost all cognitive tasks involve activity across both hemispheres. For example, language—often labeled a "left-brain" function—actually involves areas in both hemispheres, especially when understanding tone, sarcasm, or emotional nuance.

6.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

We use only 10 percent of our brain.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

Actually, we use 100 percent of our brain. New research technologies — the positron emission tomography and functional magnetic resonance imaging — have debunked this belief. Scientists confirm we use most of our brains most of the time. Even during sleep, our brain remains highly active.

7.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

10 sec • 1 pt

Mental capacity is genetic and cannot be changed by experiences.

Myth

Fact

Answer explanation

One of the most important discoveries in neuroscience is neuroplasticity—the brain’s ability to rewire itself in response to learning, experience, and environment. Even well into adulthood, people can form new neural connections, improve cognitive skills, and adapt to challenges.
