The brain has about 100 billion neurons linked to one another through hundreds of trillions of connections called synapses. Neuroscientists are discovering the mechanisms of the brain that underpin theories of neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to modify, change, and adapt both structure and function in response to experiences. Based on cutting edge neuroscience and cognitive psychology, this book will debunk myths that hinder your ability to be a learner as well as provide you with: Strategies to overcome barriers to learning. Resources and ideas for integrating learning in your daily life. Approaches for developing a life-long learning practice.\nWhether you are a seasoned employee, starting your career, or looking to change careers, lifelong learning is the key to unlocking lifelong potential in your career and personal life. Hardwired to Learn is organized into five parts.\n\nPart 1 sets the stage by highlighting the industrial revolutions of the past and the changes and disruptions brought by each. It describes why the 4th Industrial Revolution may be the most pervasive and how the double disruption of technology and the pandemic is altering the world of work. It then posits that the only way we can become resilient, adapt, and thrive is by embracing—and accelerating—our extraordinary capability to learn.\n\nPart 2 recaps the origins of our ideas about learning and how the evolution of those theories over the past several hundred years has deepened our knowledge of ourselves and how we learn. It exposes four prevalent myths that have constrained the learning capacity of generations to learn. It highlights recent discoveries in neuroscience and how these new insights open the door for a paradigm shift in human learning.\n\nPart 3 identifies what’s getting in the way of our capacity to learn and sets the stage for overcoming these barriers. It reveals how these obstacles we impose on ourselves and others are widespread, and shares tangible strategies for unleashing your potential to learn.\n\nPart 4 offers some tangible steps to get you started on your learning practice from setting an intention to learn to managing your health and well-being to improving cognitive capability. In addition to providing the mindsets and methods you can use to become a lifelong learner, it includes research on how you can slow down the brain’s aging process.\n\nPart 5—the final chapter—brings this all together by providing historic examples of how and why a Human Intelligence (HI) revolution is needed to accelerate our abilities in the face of the challenges of our time.\n\nPraise for H2L\n\"Through an adept synthesis of research – particularly in learning theory and neuroscience – 25-year\nlearning expert and future of work strategist Teri Hart weaves history, economics, technology, psychology,\nmedicine and sociology into a fascinating exploration of the role of mind and body in learning.
