概要 Matthew Lieberman discovered the mentalizing network that he calls the "Social Brain" through fMRI research. This large network is devoted to figuring out other people’s thoughts and intentions: . The Social Brain is also important for learning and is active anytime the working memory network, which we use for analytical thinking, is not. Lieberman calls it our Superpower, and he defines our Kryptonite as the traditional education system. Educators tend to see the social aspect of learning as a frivolity, or ignore it altogether. The presenters demonstrated that when teachers are designing rich online classes, synchronous or not, the social brain has much to teach us, including why we experience “Zoom fatigue.”
