Summary. Rote memorization has its place in learning, but the distinction between rote learning and meaningful learning is important. The goal of teaching is for students to understand the material they're being asked to learn, not simply to memorize it to pass a test.
Avoid milk products, caffeine, alcohol, and apple and pear juices, because they may worsen diarrhea. Soft, bland foods are recommended as well, including bananas, plain rice, toast, crackers, boiled potatoes, smooth peanut butter, cottage cheese, noodles and applesauce.
The pectin in apples can help with the symptoms of diarrhea, but the skin can be an irritant, so opt for apple sauce. The final part of the BRAT diet, plain white toast can be binding and easy to digest. Same goes for plain crackers â nice and easy on the tummy (be sure to wash them down with plenty of water!).
