Explanation / Answer
Name a skill that you know now and can do smoothly that you couldn't do when you were born.
As the video shows and we got to know that the brain develops very smoothly and the intelligence also changes gradually and with proper neuron structure we can see the complex neuron present after many years of birt. So i can think of going to gym and to do work outs to gain muscles and this requires intelligence which i could not able to do when i was born.
How does your brain look different from when you were born, when you were learning that skill, and now?
The brain cahnges very slowly and the neurons present are much more complecated now than before as we grows from childhood to young age the intelligence also start growing and by scientifically we can see the difference in those images which showed how the neurons were there during the time of birth and now.
Share the most important thing you learned from Dr. Merzenich. Why is this learning important to you?
As he told we are having a great resource which is not fully used and hence its under utilization. also we are not giving value to it that is nothing but our brain. yeas surely we can train our brain to learn anything. as he also gave the example that an athlrt means they should not only have to improve their physical body but they should have good mathematic power to have good accuracy and judgementing power and that can be possible only when they start utilise their brain.
What is something that you would like to learn?
I would like to learn new languages to get more descriptive vocabulary. also will like to practice musical instruments which can strengthen my brain also through playing sports and thinking creative ideas i can improvise my brain and these are the things that i will like to learn.
