3. So what’s wrong with much of the training we do now?

4. Wizz Training Accelerating Your Learning So what is accelerated learning? It’s the use of the full mind and the whole personality to accelerate and enhance the learning process….. Accelerated learning is an end, not a means!

5. Familiar Ingredients

6. Different Recipes

7. Wizz Training Accelerating Your Learning So what is the difference? Same ingredients, different recipes…..plus Whole mind and whole body learning Visual, physical (brain-switching) Learner creation not learner consumption Creating knowledge, building own understanding Participation & collaboration Everyone is a learner and a tutor or coach Multi-dimensional, levels, methods, styles, media Greater alignment with learner in-take preferences Real world not theoretical Real practice, simulation, performance

9. Wizz Training Accelerating Your Learning Triune Brain Paul MacLean, the former Director of the Laboratory of the Brain and Behavior at the United States National Institute of Mental Health. The Reptilian Complex consists of the brain stem and the cerebellum. Its purpose is closely related to actual physical survival and maintenance of the body. The cerebellum orchestrates movement. Digestion, reproduction, circulation, breathing, and the execution of the "fight or flight" response in stress are all housed in the brain stem. The Limbic System, the second brain to evolve, houses the primary centers of emotion. The neocortex constitutes five-sixths of the human brain. The neocortex makes language, including speech and writing possible. It renders logical and formal operational thinking possible and allows us to see ahead and plan for the future.
