The journey of information consists of four key steps as it moves through the brain, shaping our thoughts, actions, and overall cognitive performance.
Gather and Process:
Involves the initial reception and comprehension of information. It encompasses the cognitive processes of perception and analysis, where individuals actively gather sensory inputs from the environment and mentally process them. This stage includes paying attention to relevant stimuli, extracting meaningful patterns, and interpreting the information in a way that can be understood and utilized by the brain.
Active Sketchpad:
Refers to the cognitive function responsible for short- and working memory and visualization. It serves as a temporary storage system for holding and manipulating information actively. This process enables individuals to mentally visualize and manipulate images, ideas, and concepts in their mind’s eye. It plays a crucial role in tasks requiring short-term retention, mental calculations, problem-solving, and planning.
Monitor & Control:
Involves self-control, adaptability and in this case also framed creativity. It encompasses cognitive processes such as impulse control and cognitive flexibility. This stage allows individuals to regulate their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, enabling them to adapt to changing circumstances and switch between different cognitive tasks efficiently. It involves inhibiting impulsive responses, maintaining focus, and adjusting cognitive strategies when faced with new information or challenges.
Envision:
Encompasses the cognitive processes of conceptualization and abstract thinking. It involves the ability to create mental images or representations of abstract concepts and think beyond concrete reality. During this stage, individuals engage in higher-level cognitive activities such as generating and manipulating ideas, theories, and possibilities.And to envision innovative solutions, formulate creative strategies, and conceptualize complex systems and implement effective strategies to achieve desired goals or outcomes. This process enables individuals to explore hypothetical scenarios, foresee potential outcomes, and mentally simulate different possibilities before taking action. It plays a crucial role in strategic planning, problem-solving, and engaging in conceptual and abstract reasoning to drive forward-thinking actions.
