How We Learn

The video explains how learning involves absorbing new information and rearranging neural connections. It uses the example of Rebecca, a gymnast, to illustrate how practice strengthens these connections, making new skills easier to perform over time. The process begins with an electrical impulse in the brain, which must cross synapses to form new pathways. Initially challenging, repeated practice makes these pathways stronger, supporting the adage that practice makes perfect.
