Interesting Facts

Do you know:

Using a calculator might restrict

the level of expertise achieved

with respect to short-term

memory skills for complex

arithmetic." Complex arithmetic

places special demands on

short-term memory skills that

simple arithmetic usually does

not, because complex arithmetic

involves operations such as

carrying, borrowing and

place keeping. "This is

demanding mental juggling for

most people's short-term

working memory processes.

Math anxiety worsens performance in two ways: First, it leads to avoidance, which leads to lower competence; second, it temporarily inhibits working memory capacity, possibility by failure to inhibit attention to intrusive thoughts.

80% of the world's people have a

more developed left brain.

Dr. Roger Sperry of the California Institute of Technology won a Nobel Prize for his work on the functions of the brain's hemispheres.

The right brain has a "high speed, high capacity memory" mechanism.
