transmission between neurons. With repeated practice and learning, myelination can increase in certain brain regions, leading to more efficient information processing. Although these processes are not specific to online teaching, they affect the way people absorb and process information, regardless of the learning environment. In online instruction, it can be important to use teaching methods and approaches that promote these processes to effectively support learning. These include, for example, active learning, collaborative learning, and repetitive practice. Brain areas involved Online teaching does not involve specific brain areas that differ from those involved in traditional learning. However, several brain areas are relevant that are generally involved in learning and memory processes, regardless of the teaching method or teaching environment. Some of these brain areas are as follows. The hippocampus. The hippocampus plays a central role in the formation of new memories and spatial orientation. It is crucial for learning new information and retrieving long-term memories. The prefrontal cortex. The prefrontal cortex is involved in planning, decision making, and problem solving. It also plays a role in attention control, working memory, and self-regulation, which are important for effective learning. The amygdala. The amygdala is involved in the processing of emotions, particularly the fear and stress response. It plays a role in emotional learning and the modulation of memory processes by transmitting information to the hippocampus.
