The Brain's Natural Learning Blueprint: Rethinking Education
Imagine standing face-to-face with a rhesus macaque while desperately cramming for exams. This happened to Sanjay Sarma, who despite being among India's top students, found himself failing courses at the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology. That monkey, effortlessly taking what it wanted while Sarma struggled to absorb knowledge, seemed better adapted to university life than he was. This moment sparked his lifelong quest to understand why traditional education works for some but fails many others. Learning isn't supposed to be painful-it's our evolutionary birthright. The problem isn't with our brains but with educational systems designed without considering how we naturally learn. Our schools don't shape students so much as systematically eliminate those who don't fit predetermined standards, creating a stark correlation between family income and educational success. **Key insight**: Learning difficulties often stem not from personal deficiencies but from educational systems that ignore how our brains actually work.
