2:30 am
i am shopping and i am ready to dive into the hands of gentlemen who 2 of you have . you have a one, dodge, talk to me before you go to the spots and unexpected side supplies. to choose and send an emoji to someone you only need thumbs. but writing with a pen or pencil involves the entire hand. it's a veritable anatomical wonder made up of 27 different bones, a perfect multi functional tool with close ties to the brain. writing things out by hand, improve recall, how come that topic and much more this week on dw science program tomorrow today. welcome to the show. the newborns will grab woods
2:31 am
in their immediate environment. they have an innate grasp reflex. it probably originally rose from the need to reflectively latch on to a mother. animals for the pin circle at which involves coordinating with the sun only starts to develop around 6 months. the grasp reflex is subsequently lost and training improves dexterity, and daily life. most children can tie their own shoelaces by the age of 4 and learned to right in the 2nd grade class and the small but very good town of old. today's lesson plan includes handwriting. see if i can, i can see that so many of you, the training is really paying off of a writing by hand is a complex process. during this activity, 12 areas of your brain are active and more than 30 muscles and 17 joints in the hand, have to work together. malia new ideas. my eye is
2:32 am
a researcher at an institute dedicated to the topic. she's here today to observe how individual children use their hands when writing how do they hold the pen? do they write fluently or do they tense up? it should ivan man and it's really learning to rise his learning to me. i'm sort of when we talk about him by saying we're not just talking about finished classes, but the movement that leads to handwriting and i'm sitting here. writing by hand creates a memory trace in the brain. different letters lead to corresponding movements to this makes learning easier and mrs. highlight rising cost saved and i find it pretty easy, but it also helps my owns a bit. so for those 2 types of some people, surveys have shown that children are losing interest in writing the new ideas maya
2:33 am
has observed that as well, along with something else that behind city comes, warranty is deteriorating, driving the children, don't write. they write faulty slowly and they tend saw and they write diarrhea let you play stipends, at least at least half of all boys hand elementary school and one and 3 girls have problems with writing according to germany's national teachers association weaknesses can be detected with the help of a special digital pin, a touch sensitive screen under the paper, measures pressure movements and speed of writing and evaluate the data directly along the one in dolton l l l 3 times then one more time, 3 times stop, stop. the test also allows melody and the low d as mile to clearly explain to the children what they're doing wrong. should i say
2:34 am
now you're right fox, you can do it very well. then it gives you a speed is very good for your age and i yeah, this looks on this, but you pressed a little too hard and we're going to do an exercise for that. now on this, i know the results. health myers institute develop freely accessible methods that can be easily implemented by teachers. they also help train kids fingers in a plateful way. and then we do this so that we don't always press so hard on the pen ink as many to pick them up to you as soon as you like. sedation increases, they write foster when they copy from the blackboard. for example, when teachers come encouraged us even more in size, but they still have done enough that is not the best by default to fill out the holidays. and the writing down. stories dictated by the teacher is also a good way to practice. even
2:35 am
a single hour of hand training every week brings measurable progress because it helps many children enjoy writing more. but enjoyment as far from the only factor playing a role. when we would like the children to spend less time in front of screens huffman, our less with technical media, and instead of do stuff, kids like to do experience nature. bait cookies at home, need to play with water. in other words, every thing that's experienced have typically with the hands to submit in henderson, i found that the time so i haven't heard of writing must not be replaced. it's very valuable for our brains. digitalization isn't the on to success, but we should be using it where it's appropriate moment i'm not the the digital age has given rise to many programs and making writing easier.
2:36 am
practically, every cell phone now has a voice to text puncture, and that's all that. but artificial intelligence is taking things to the next level with tools like chat, g, p, t, tell it to write an essay on a particular topic. and it'll turn one out and seconds off and not 100 percent correct, or stylistically perfect. even. so a, i, it's posing a tricky, di, lemme for schools this elementary school in switzerland, kids are getting involved with a i, as an early age then ultimately is one of the 1st primary school teachers in the country to teach 10 and 11 year olds. healthy use a, i find the constant you can always ask for help, but you also always have to be critical and ask yourself whether it's the right thing to do. if you need to do something with the chat. abt, there's one computer here in the front,
2:37 am
and another in the back is the kids can only access top g p t on to school computers. and the accounts belong to the school. the class walks on different tasks. one is to us without t t t who am i make a riddle about the level? i don't think i could have made such a good riddle about myself. it doesn't so well from so little information what's thrown up be so good. this is just kind of exciting because it's like an artificial intelligence and can do stuff . you tell it to do, which is pretty cool. but when you ask certain questions, it doesn't really work properly yet. but this felt finished on the, on the cdc,
2:38 am
since it's exciting to see how fast it collects information from the internet and how well it can write text edition on the web hosting. do you have just one version or did you ask several times? i asked twice the 1st time i rose to make a riddle about me. i'm 10 and i left the dogs and then it said i was adult. and it's good for you to realize that you can make a new version and always improve and change this. and i'm thinking sites then old amount to things chunk g p t problems like those being discussed in other schools or in the state police. it's important to provide kids with the right tools for the future, especially when it comes to important technological development. between from when we teach computer science. and you might think that means we teach kids how to use
2:39 am
a computer or how one works. but at its core, it's about media, education, and media. the student should learn how to use such media and chat, g p t for because an essential part of that. it's also a facet of dealing with new developments and the artificial intelligence behind testing, which takes things one step further to go. what the youngest school kids are still playing around with this already grade more concrete for all the ones that every day school life as all visit to the school in menacing and shows. the goal here is to lead the pack in terms of digitalization and in the classroom chemistry languages, algebra. teach us here right now. incorporating chat g p t into lessons, and practically every subject. in miss smith's class middle school students of finding out how well chunk g p t can handle complicated arithmetic issues.
2:40 am
you think the question is whether the solutions are correct? get all this, do i go to different results? when else the right questions, touch g p t come spits out solutions that help the student solve math problems on that writing a personal assistant that responds to individual needs, the position comes close to the input. so it's very good at analyzing tasks, you know, and it's very good at explaining how to solve them in almost, but it can't actually solve the problems for you often lose the house i lift nice fellows to that's not fit to be, especially when it comes to math, it's often wrong that's a foolish, but it's good. it's suggesting what you have to do and explaining what it's actually about breaking down to us and explaining them in simpler terms, is clear that i have to admit that with was the 2nd groups. and especially for someone like me who has a hard time with math, it's definitely a help to remove the streets for the math teacher, you're not supposed to go sees great potential. and i,
2:41 am
even if it comp the math very well piece especially happy to have some multiples in the run up to final exams on it. so i don't have time to go over every question individually with each student. it's just not possible. and the time we have available these days, ones for thought. so in that way it's sensational. maybe it's in default, but it's like you have a partner who can answer certain questions for you guys. and as a teacher, you know which questions the partner can answer. well, and which ones you have to take over yourself and insoluble amounts. and if you understand that, then you can use it efficiently. if it's a bicycle to say, so say i can see on things that fellow teacher mac notify is a german teacher at the same school deal. so regularly uses chuck g p t. and his less of you, in the, i mean we're in the middle of preparing an essay. and today the aim is for you all to get feedback on
2:42 am
a draft that you've already written. should even hoffen on. and for that, we need to talk about what prompt we need to enter. whether it's good to him by popular e style or text structure. students had learned how to write good prompts, the entries in chat g p t. this time the, i a suppose to get some specific tips on wherever and how to improve their essays as it tends to be due to me. it's actually the 1st told me that the pros and cons i entered here could be structured more clearly i should be think so i did that and then re entered it and then it said, well done. well, it works. now. i also think the text is better now do the structure is generally better if any suspect it reads better and more clearly spin sad it improve the flow and made my argument smoke here, and it's amazingly specific. it took bits out and rewarded them. it was much better than the original. the original 6, the german teacher isn't worried about his people's getting lazy or trying to cheat on the comments, right? lucky alternative for additional causes,
2:43 am
it ends in plagiarism existed before now it's nothing new. and of course, if the text is too perfect, if and you know the student comes and how their writing has developed it, if something doesn't fit, you can just ask nichol. i also think the students know that they'll ultimately have to manage without charging meetings with them. with the rise of a i tools like chunk g p t. it's important that young people learn how to navigate them and use them to their advantage. but there is one aspect of learning where a i can't help you studying for and taking tests for most school kids and students of very stressful process. many feel overwhelmed before hand. let's take a look at what's going on and how to overcome the fear of exams. oh no, i'm not going to make it. i need some sleep. but what if i fail the exam?
2:44 am
doesn't use this sounds familiar with college life is no joke. you want to perform your best, but often it's hot to stay focused and disciplined all the time. but it is possible to beat the college stress and a so your exams, let's explode the science behind that. the, the stress head students all over that was a number of seem to have increased. for example, do out of 5 college students suffer from anxiety $1.00 and $3.00, even from depressive. symptoms covered has had its own part to play him. but stress for say, is not bad, it can make us do well in exams. stress straps up our body and mind and import into dangerous situations. it increases hormones like drilling throughout dominion and
2:45 am
cortisol, which speed of a hot and improve of concentration. a body has been doing this for centuries to coal, puts dangerous and important situations. it's called the fight or flight response. but when stress tomlins reach very high levels, the system and then performance and concentration decrease. typical signs and symptoms of high stress levels can be a founding, hard, headaches, nausea and for sleep and problems. concentrating, in extreme cases, stressed into the anxiety that can make you go completely blank in tests. so why does it feel like anxiety swallow is your knowledge been feel dominates spots. so if i drains communication factories can get low regard because anything we've learned,
2:46 am
even though the information is stored in operating. because when stress hormones are high, brains control center right behind the forehead. the prefrontal cortex stops regulating high thinking and emotions as it usually does. instead pulled about like b like deluxe, the center for emotions and compulsive behavior decal. and what we feel is feel oh, that's a split to now this before the test that's nominated. but besides from being ready for bed, another important and such the as how and what you think in a stressful situation. thoughts like i'm a bit nervous but that's okay. can actually come you down but the thoughts like i never make it, i fail set off of this just cycle of feel and driving straight from on the. the good thing is you can do something about it. the bad thing. you might have to change some general habits in your life. one important
2:47 am
aspect is taking breaks even if you are under time pressure, engenders everything that relax as the body in mind hits with stress and anxiety that are some scientifically proven methods that really work. studies have shown the benefits of practicing mindfulness relaxation, breathing exercises and meditation. there are lots of apps on the market that offer these methods, but be a little careful which one you choose as only a few apps have been scientifically evaluated. see if you can find some information on it before using it. another important factor in feeling when balanced is a good night's sleep. yet to out of 3 students don't sleep enough. particularly during exam periods, they cut down on their sleep. it's really impacts it up to they make performance.
2:48 am
one is the primary function to sleep is learning and memory. if you don't sleep, memory simply doesn't happen. how much sleep younger does need is not clearly known, but it is thought to be around 8 hours. finally, let's talk about giving your day a bit more structure, set up a good plan defined times for rent and what you learn. and when you exercise, meet defense, listen to good music or use social media, especially in the 2 weeks before an exam. a good study plan has certainly not tried to avoid last minute cramming and all nighters. and if you feel like you can't manage your stress, so things id, talk to people usually on the trust like friends, family, or university counselors. don't hesitate to seek professional head. try to find out
2:49 am
which of these tips has to you and there's a good chance you'll say that most mostly to college life. even if you fail a test every now and again, it doesn't mean the end of the world. on the contrary, in the long run, it can actually help strengthen your ability to bounce back your resilience. no one succeeds at everything all the time, but some people deal with failure better than others can be trained. isabel, it him i, she is a psychologist who studies what helps people cope in moments of crisis. resilience plays a key role in the research. she and her colleagues even look into test subjects, brains. the term resilience refers to the ability to cope with challenges. scientists recognize 3 basic types of humans. i'm fine with us against both of us who resilience bonzai with me. because i think it nicely demonstrates the different
2:50 am
ways that people react to adversity to pop things until they again come to have been much in the when does life to develop the vitreous ways. but if you look at the trunk, it remains every time and stuff. and stuff, but with some people the stress bounces all one go 10. so it's called resistance from that games keeps other people felt less well and may develop. symptoms of stressed have in front of the wind. the wind dies down a little which is corporate generations. they manage to regenerate and stop growing normally again, taking a just look up on this. i did the cool the winds of life started blowing. when done sony to put them as a sub type known as reconfiguration. cool, that's what i saw. this is where the trunk changes that on top once i op on, so i didn't do so well for awhile. it didn't get to the microsoft outlook, but then it managed to grow in a new direction. by an example would be people who had come. so they also managed to develop new skills abilities and i did in order to be even better equipped in a matter of speaking. hey, mike, for instance,
2:51 am
realize what's really important to them in their lives, in stride housing completely new direction and all you these like they might quit the job well to see very specific activities and hoping resilience used to be viewed as a kind of inborn characteristic. one person might be more resilient to another, less so. so research has shown that how resilience you are, can change over the course of your life. how do i send her team one to understand exactly how it works? that in this case, we look into the brain because we found it to missouri and people, some struck to the fact that developed in the brain to put them into connected enough. and that's very, i'm like the mikaela, the son to for processing emotional side. but also another important structure of the prefrontal cool toxic in the full brain. and again, it's responsible for thinking and planning this. and of course, these are also structures that can be trained. and because the ability can be trained, isabella homepage and her team have founded a resilience outpatient clinic. here people can learn and develop specific
2:52 am
resilience factors and courses or an individual coaching sessions. for exam, well they learn to confront and take on situations that they find challenging and that even failure at times can have its positive sides. a little shy if on hold for say years, of course no fill up to the phone but it is positive like no one gets 3 life without some crisis. i. so you have to practice failure funding and we should teach people. it's good to fail because you can learn from them and let us read. why do you have a science question? send it to us in a video text or voice message. if we answer it on the show will send you a little surprises. the thank you. so come on just that this week or question comes from jorge enrique from el salvador
2:53 am
the what can we learn from spiders? the spiders and most of builders that help a lot to teach us the they can produce so many times find the human thread low enough to encircle the clothes which weigh less than a bar of sorry, the, the european gotten spider. we've subscribe from several different types of threats . spider silk is free of bacteria and also mike crowds more elastic some night long and ground for ground, much stronger than steel. prey, tangled up in spite of soak doesn't stand a chance. a single thread can contain up to 1500 strums. the material force is
2:54 am
produced in the animal's optimum and was the cold spindle wrecked, or the spider slowly shapes its thread down to these glands. researches have been working for decades to replicate the price i saw sufficiently. ready ready ready to do so, they fast copied the dna segment from the slightest d 9 that provides the genetic recipe for soak. then they transplanted it into a box area. the bacteria modified in this way start turning out the protein acts as a building block for spider silk. ready this rule material is then used to produce also official threads, even more or less to can staples and then not tro counterparts. manufacturers warranty makes me cause from spite of cell and coating. so medical implants,
2:55 am
some cosmetic products also contain spine to salt proteins. the elastic material is even use an ad across the twins and reset to see many more potential future applications for spite of silk, the we imagined about science and technology. that's like d. w signs is now on take talk. what do you want to gravitational ways that that is when did people begin getting high and laughing gas? how do i need drums boogie to the beads? and what's the perfect king footboard find? find the on says guess most dw science own new tick, tock, channel. and that wraps things up this week on dw
2:56 am
science show. thanks for watching and see you again next time on tomorrow. today the, [000:00:00;00]
2:57 am
the shift your guide to life and it did to, to explore all the latest online trend, navigate your way through the digital jungle, get a global perspective. we'll see you guys and show you what's possible. really massive to you see it coming up on

d. w of the who need them to is trying so they need to have so much more to offer and as far as the beautiful the symmetry in the world. transylvania, the house of romania. in 15 minutes. d w, the words people have to say that's why we listen to every weekend on d w. a fateful encounter in the late 19 seventy's former concentration camp inmates shlomo smiles, not met the man who had to maintain him. go stop fog now!
2:59 am
2 years later, vaux now was dead. was it suicide? royce too? don't really have to go smooth and not c starts january 27th on dw. so you don't feel the same way you expect and want different things from life than your parents . i just want to pursue was that's my thought was fired or you think you kid is 2 different risk, irresponsible, unreasonable, all stuff. port is nonsense. i want my son to become a doctor. is there an alternative to plan everything to prevent a divorce, but nothing works. so in the case the time
