The brain is the most complex organ in the human body. It produces our every
thought, action, memory, feeling and experience of the world. This jelly-like mass
of tissue, weighing in at around 1.4 kilograms, contains a staggering one hundred
billion nerve cells, or neurons. The complexity of the connectivity between these
cells is mind-boggling. Each neuron can make contact with thousands or even tens
of thousands of others, via tiny structures called synapses. Our brains form
a million new connections for every second of our lives. The pattern and strength
of the connections is constantly changing and no two brains are alike. It is in these
changing connections that memories are stored, habits learned and personalities
shaped, by reinforcing certain patterns of brain activity, and losing other.
Brain Cognitive skills occupy a vital role in an individual’s overall development,
as they include some of the brain’s core functions such as thinking, reading,
learning, retaining information, and paying attention and are used to solve
problems, remember tasks and make decisions. All this affects the quality of our
learning and performance. One of the most important cognitive skills is attention,
which enables us to process the necessary information from our environment. We
usually process such information through our senses, stored memories, and other
cognitive processes. Lack of attention inhibits and reduces our information
processing systems. Thus, cognitive skills are mental capabilities that are vital for
students to learn effectively. They complement each other to function effectively
and determine the success of learning outcomes. Schools can start focusing on
developing students cognitive skills through age-appropriate physical activities and
brain exercises.
