How we learn

We learn all our lives: deliberately or unintentionally, motivated by interest or external pressure, from mistakes and through practice. But how exactly does this learning work? Which tools and strategies help us? What happens in our brain?

We explain research results from neurology, psychology and pedagogy with brain specimens of humans and animals, models, films, tests and games. You will experience that you know more than you think and that you learn without meaning to.
