This short article from Medium connects learning and brain activity and neurodiversity.
It revolves around neuroplasticity… ‘Neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections — is not a static trait, but a dynamic process influenced by environment, behavior, and technology.’
The risks to ND brains from the highly structured algorithmic online world of scrolling and swiping is highlighted. An emphasis on fluid rather than fixed intelligence is developed.
The article states that studies from ‘Trends in Neuroscience and Education’ emphasize the need for embodied, curiosity-driven learning models. When students engage through movement, emotion, and autonomy, learning is retained more deeply.’
This is just what art making does. This potentially makes it particularly useful to ND brains.
