How do lectures affect the relative ratio of brain waves (alpha/beta/gamma/theta/delta)?
That's interesting. How might brain wave ratios affect learning and retention?
Research has shown that increased beta and gamma waves are associated with increased attention, focus, and active thinking, which can lead to better retention and learning. However, too much beta activity can also lead to anxiety and stress, which can impair learning. Theta waves may be associated with relaxation and creativity, but too much theta activity can also lead to drowsiness and impaired attention. So, it's important to have a balanced ratio of brain waves during learning.
