The science behind earworms mbt®1. How we learnA large part of learning in general and languagelearning in particular is to do with the memorisationof words, facts and other significant information. It'sa well-known fact that we use only a fraction of ourbrain power and traditional book learning is nowrecognised as not suiting every learner.earworms uses simple techniques which open upand exploit more of the brain's native power andcome under the heading of 'accelerated learning'.In a recent issue of the journal 'Nature',researchers at Dartmouth College reported thatthey had pinpointed the region of the brainwhere 'earworms' or catchy tunes reside, the“auditory cortex”. They found that the soundsand words that have actually been heard can bereadily recalled from the auditory cortex where thebrain can listen to them 'virtually' again and again.2. What we learnearworms mbt® adopts the so-called lexicalapproach to language. In essence, this means welook at language in terms of whole meaningfulchunks, then break these down into their componentbite-sized, easily absorbable parts and thenreconstruct them. You not only learn complete,immediately useful phrases, you also intuitivelylearn something about the structure (the grammar)of the language. These 'chunks' which the learnercan 'mix and match', gradually build up to coverwhole areas of the language.
