Learning and deliberation

The normative principles of deliberation stem from the nature of communication, which is seen as an educative process where preferences are transformed rather than aggregated[1][2]. Discussions help to educate citizens and to make them more autonomous[3][4][5][6][7].

Socratic dialoge

Socratic dialoge is more effective in learning then didactic teaching[8]. students explain their thinking out loud enhance their learning[9][10][11]. When using why questions and explist negative feedbeck, students learn more[12]


difference between experts and laymen in learning

Experts have more procedural knowledge, then laymen. When asked to solve problems, experts retrieve knowledge from long term memory to "long term working memory". Then they have to integrate current information to the working memory to result a solution. Laymen need to load both current information and procedural knowledge into the working memory, thus resulting higher load on the working memory. This overload can be detected by the speed of the solution process, as well as the speed of finding the next step in the solution[13], and I think someone measured it by pupil dilation.

Larning and Pupil size

See more details...

Pupil response is governed by the autonomic nervous system. Pupil dilation depends on the activation of the adrenergic sympathetic nervous system, while pupil constriction depends on the cholinergic parasympathetic nervous system[14]. It has been well documented that pupil response is modulated not only by an ambient luminance level (the so-called pupil light reflex) but also by the amount of mental effort invested in a task [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25]. For example, Porter et al[26] reported that the pupil dilates when subjects conduct a difficult visual search task in which high mental effort has to be invested.
