Active and Diffuse Modes

How do these modes help with learning?

You have to find a balance between these types of learning. While actively studying specific concepts can help increase your understanding of certain things, taking a brain break helps immensely when you’re stuck on a topic or a problem.

What is active mode?

Active learning is the act of, well, learning! This is the time where you gather new information, narrow in on the details, go in-depth on a topic, take notes, highlight text, practice concepts, and read new info.

What is diffuse mode?

Think of diffuse mode as a dimly lit atmosphere that allows you to see more of the full picture.

Diffuse activities might include letting your mind wander, going for a walk to clear your head, and sleeping. It´s not all hard work (although that helps), but it´s also about giving your brain an opportunity to digest all the new knowledge. You need breaks!
