The Student Performance Podcast: Recent Episodes
Brent Shaw
The pandemic has highlighted that being a student has a whole lot more to do than just studying. Many of us have felt isolated, unfulfilled and burned out. It begs the question, what good are straight-A’s if you aren’t able to enjoy the fruits of your labor.
That’s why in these episodes we are going to dive deep into the science of concepts that you never knew had such an impact on your wellbeing as a student. My mission is not only to transform your life in the classroom but help you live a more fulfilled life outside of it as well.
Whether you are a high school student, in college, graduate school, or maybe you aren’t currently in school but identify yourself as a “student for life” each episode will provide you with the tools to make changes right after you listen to it.
This is the Student Performance Podcast
What if I told you that you’ve been taking notes WRONG your whole entire life. Alright well that was pretty dramatic. But the truth is, when I work with students they have no idea what they’re doing when it comes to notes. Should it should be by hand or on their computer, should they write down everything the teacher says or put it in their own words. And worst of all they spend all this time writing these pretty notes with every pen color in the rainbow, just to never to look at them again. So, In this episode of the student performance podcast, I’m going to take a deep dive into the literature on note taking to teach you how to remember everything you write down.Articles Reviewed In This PodcastThe Pen Is Mightier Than the Keyboard: Advantages of Longhand Over Laptop Note Takinghttps://linguistics.ucla.edu/people/hayes/Teaching/papers/MuellerAndOppenheimer2014OnTakingNotesByHand.pdfEffects of Cornell, Verbatim and Outline Note-Taking Strategies on Students’ Retrieval of Lecture Information in Nigeriahttps://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/234635029.pdfUsing the Cornell Note-taking System Can Help Eighth Grade Students Alleviate the Impact of Interruptions While Reading at Homehttps://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ1205170.pdfMind Mapping Vs traditional: A comparison of two instructional methods to teach Theories of Growth and Development of children among B.Sc(N) III year studentshttp://www.pnrsolution.org/Datacenter/Vol3/Issue5/42.pdfThe effect of mind mapping on listening comprehension and vocabulary in early childhood educationhttps://www.researchgate.net/profile/Chiel-Van-Der-Veen/publication/315380025_The_effect_of_mind_mapping_on_listening_comprehension_and_vocabulary_in_early_childhood_education/links/58ce59c9a6fdcc5cccbbfe08/The-effect-of-mind-mapping-on-listening-comprehension-and-vocabulary-in-early-childhood-education.pdfThe Influence of Mind Mapping on Eighth Graders’ Science Achievementhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1949-8594.2008.tb17843.xsDr. Justin Sung Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@JustinSung Dr. Andre Pinesett’s Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@TheStudyDocCheck out the Study Course That Changed My Life! 👇 https://therealstudentmentor--studenttransformation.thrivecart.com/5pil-1st/ SocialsYoutube- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEiaA5zJ5TN-WZy3VhvPtsA Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/therealstudentmentor/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/mentor4studentsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/studentperformancepodcast TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@therealstudentmentorSubscribe to the Student Performance Podcast:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-student-performance-podcast/id1639001194Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5pMl9i7kL2vC3sMnq23qqn Timecodes:0:00- Intro1:04- Working Memory3:36- Cognitive Load Theory6:09- Hand Written vs Computerized Notes10:12- Linear vs Non-Linear Notes12:47- Cornell Notes18:15- How I Take Notes24:47- Should You Annotate Your Professors’ Slides?26:08- What if You Don’t Understand What You’re Reading?27:21- Outro

What if I told you that there was a way to juice your brain to make you learn faster, Llaser your focus, and 10x your motivation to study. Well according to Harvard Neuropsychiatrist Dr. John Ratey, that’s what happens when you study! In this episode of the Student Performance Podcast, I interview Dr. Ratey to unlock the secrets of your brain to help you learn more information in a shorter amount of time!
John J. Ratey, MD, is an Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and an internationally recognized expert in Neuropsychiatry. He has published over 60 peer-reviewed articles, and 11 books published in 17 languages, including the groundbreaking ADHD “Driven to Distraction” series with Ned Hallowell, MD. With the publication of "Spark:The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain", Dr. Ratey has established himself as one of the world's foremost authorities on the brain-fitness connection. His most recent book, “Go Wild”, explores how we can achieve optimal physical and mental health by getting in touch with our caveman roots, and how we can “re-wild” our lives.

Imagine that you’re in medical school and were diagnosed with a rare condition that gave you a year to live. But imagine that the condition was so rare that none of your doctors knew how to treat it. So you said screw it, you’re going to do it yourself. You set out on a journey to find your own remedy even if it meant almost dying 5 times in the process. Meet Dr. David Fajgenbaum the man that found his own cure at 27 years old. In the episode of the student performance podcast, I interview Dr. Fajgenbaum to unlock the secrets of mental toughness, problem-solving, and hope that allowed him to accomplish the unthinkable.
David Fajgenbaum, MD, MBA, MSc, FCPP, is an Assistant Professor of Medicine in Translational Medicine & Human Genetics at the University of Pennsylvania, Founding Director of the Center for Cytokine Storm Treatment & Laboratory (CSTL), Associate Director, Patient Impact of the Penn Orphan Disease Center, and Co-Founder/President of the Castleman Disease Collaborative Network (CDCN). He is also the national bestselling author of 'Chasing My Cure: A Doctor's Race to Turn Hope Into Action and a patient battling idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD). He is in his longest remission ever thanks to a precision treatment that he identified, which had never been used before for iMCD. He has also identified and/or advanced 9 other treatment approaches for iMCD and cancer.

Hello everyone, welcome to the student performance podcast, I’m your host Brent Shaw. The pandemic has highlighted that being a student has a whole lot more to do than just studying. Many of us have felt isolated, unfulfilled, and burned out. It begs the question, what good are straight-A’s if you aren’t able to enjoy the fruits of your labor?
That’s why in these episodes we are going to dive deeper into concepts that you never knew had such an impact on your wellbeing as a student. Things like exercise, meditation, sleep, nutrition, cold exposure all of which will not only transform your life in the classroom but will help you live a more fulfilled life outside of it as well.
There are so many podcasts and educational programs that give you information but don’t give you actionable steps to implement it into your lives. Whether you are a high school student, in college, graduate school, or maybe you aren’t currently in school but identify yourself as a “student for life” each episode will provide you with the tools to make changes right after you listen to it.
Here’s an example of an episode breakdown. First I’ll dive deep into the science and literature of the topic we are covering. It will have things like the neurochemistry of your brain to what experiments have been performed on humans to back up the science we are discussing. Then I’ll end each episode with specific protocols you can implement in your life as soon as possible.
I’ve also been lucky enough to be connected with world leaders that I’ll be interviewing so you can hear information right from the horse’s mouth.
If you are looking for “quick fixes” that will transform your life as a student in an instant you came to the wrong podcast. We want to make lasting change in our lives and with that comes hard work and discipline. I’m here to give you the principles and actions to change, but you still got to do the work, especially when you’re not “feeling like it” I’m extremely excited to begin this journey with you and I hope you’ll pass along the information you’ve learned from these episodes with a friend as well.
