Music Makes You Learn
Yes, you already know all the usual essentials for a good study corner, right?
A comfortable chair,
A clutter-free desk,
Good-enough lighting, and your
Trusty audio interface usb at guitarcenter.com!
Yep, don’t ban music!
Especially classical music.
Think Mozart’s Sonata in D Major for Two Pianos!
You see, music has been shown to be a great tool for increasing learning potential.
It enhances spatial IQ by increasing short and long-term memory.
This has been called “The Mozart Effect".” (of course!)
In a study conducted by a French researcher in 1993 at the University of California, the IQ scores of college students improved by about nine points after they were made to listen to the Mozart sonata for 10 minutes!
(I sooo need this!)
While the idea hasn’t been definitely proven, scientists note that the part of the brain used for musical perception is also the part that is used for spatial reasoning.
And Mozart’s sonata, in particular, has been shown to activate parts of the brain responsible for higher thought processes.
Now, gimme more Mozart!
