ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and is considered a mental disorder. Children with ADHD have trouble paying attention, are hyperactive, and have difficulty controlling their behavior. It is estimated that it affects globally around 5% of all children aged 3 to 17 and that boys are 4 times as likely to be diagnosed with ADHD than girls.

John B. Watson famously claimed that if he were to be given a dozen healthy infants, he could shape them into anything; doctors, lawyers, artists, beggars, or thieves, regardless of their background or genetic predispositions. First, he completed experiments with 8-month old Albert. He later applied his theory when raising his own children. In essence, he applied the scientific method to human psychology which he called behaviorism.

Self-determination theory argues that people are motivated to learn, grow and change their lives, if their three basic psychological needs are satisfied: competence, connection, and autonomy. People who are unable to fulfill these three needs, may feel amotivation, or need extrinsic rewards to learn or make changes. They often experience little control over their own lives, no sense of self-determination, and often also poor mental health.

Confirmation bias is a tendency to look for, interpret, and recall information in ways that affirm our preconception. Whenever we encounter objective facts on an issue we look at them through the lens of our own beliefs. As a result, we see and overrate where the two intercept. The bias is strongest for emotionally charged issues or when we search for desired outcomes. This joke illustrates it quite well...

In the 1980s, the Singaporean government decided to stop importing foreign textbooks and, instead, build the world s best math curriculum from scratch. Since that time, Singaporeans study fewer concepts with greater detail, following Bruner s guideline.

Design Thinking is a 5-step process to come up with meaningful ideas that solve real problems for a particular group of people. The process is taught in top design and business schools around the world. It has brought many businesses lots of happy customers and helped entrepreneurs from all around the world, to solve problems with innovative new solutions. #learn #designthinking Never miss a new video with our mailing list: http://eepurl.com/dNU4BQ Join and support us! www.patreon.com/sprouts www.sproutsschools.com Crash Course: https://dschool.stanford.edu/resources/virtual-crash-course-video Guide for Facilitators: https://dschool.stanford.edu/resources/gear-up-how-to-kick-off-a-crash-course Entire Script: Step 1: Empathize The purpose of step one is to conduct interviews that give you an idea about what people really care about. We need to empathize with their situation. For example, if you want to help old people, you might find that they want to keep the ability to walk around. In your conversations, they might share with you different ways they can do that. Later into the interview you ll want to dig a little deeper, look for personal stories or situations where things became difficult. Ideally, you redo the process with many people with the same problem. Step 2: Define the Problem Looking at the interviews, you can now understand the actual needs that people are trying to fulfill with certain activities. One way to do that is to underline the verbs or activities that the people mentioned when talking about their problems: like going for a walk, meeting old friends for tea, or simply going grocery shopping around the corner store. You might realize it s not so much about going out, but more about staying in touch. After your analysis, formulate a problem statement: “Some elderly are afraid to be lonely. The want to stay connected.” Step 3: Ideate Now focus only on the problem statement and come up with ideas that solve the problem. The point is not to get a perfect idea, but rather to come up with as many ideas: like unique virtual reality experiences, senior friendly hover boards or a modified pushcart. Whatever it is, sketch up your best ideas and show them to the people you are trying to help, so you get their feedback. Step 4: Prototype Now take a moment to reflect on what you have learned from your conversations about the different ideas. Ask yourself, how does your idea fit in the context of people s actual lives. Your solution could be a combination of a new idea and what is already being used. Then connect the dots, sketch up your final solution and go build a real prototype that s just good enough to be tested. Step 5: Test Now test your prototype with actual users. Don t defend your idea in case people don t like it, the point is to learn what works and what didn t, so any feedback is great. Then go back to ideation or prototyping and apply your learning. Repeat the process until you have a prototype that works and solves the real problem. Now you are ready to change the world or open shop. To experience design thinking first hand, do the free virtual design thinking crash course from Stanford’s D-School right now. You will learn to design a new gift giving experience.

Brainstorming is a good way to come up a solution or two. As the name suggests, the idea is that you storm on the neural pathways through the brain to pick a lot of thoughts quickly and intuitively. It s best to do this with a group of diverse people, so you have lots of different brains to explore. This leads to the creation of more ideas and maybe new solutions.

Support us to make more learning videos with a small donation at http://www.patreon.com/sprouts There is focused and diffused thinking. Ping Pong is a technique that explains how to switch between focused and diffused thinking in order to increase your understanding and get creative. www.sproutsschoools.com More about this technique: Focused learning is looking at a problem set and trying real hard to get it. Diffused learning is just letting your mind wander without a plan. It’s important to deepen your understanding and trigger creative thoughts. Both are important. To maximise your overall learning outcome, play ping pong between the two: focus, relax, focus, relax, focus, relax,… In practise that means first focus with all your attention ideally shutting off any distractions (phones, noise,...). After doing this for a while (a timer can be useful) deliberately stop to focus and let your mind freely wander around. Its then when the brain connect what you just focused on with other information stored in your memory. That process leads to deeper thinking, better retention and allows to for creative thoughts to happen. Painter Salvador Dali and inventor Thomas Edison both actively worked with it. After a round of focused work, Dali sat on his arm chair to think and doze off. In one hand he held a big key and the moment he fell asleep the key dropped, which woke him up and so he went back to the canvas to continue his focused work. Steve Jobs broke up his daily thinking routine by going out for long walks. Even at tests the technique can be useful. Start with the most difficult problem first, once you get stuck switch to a more simple one. While doing the easier one, your brain will keep the difficult problem in its working memory and without you even realizing its looking for connections to make sense of it. Once you are done with the easy problem, go back to the difficult one. You might find it not as hard anymore. The technique is based on material from the MOOC Learning How to Learn by Barbara Oakley, PhD, PE, is a professor of engineering at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan.
