Abstract
Distinguishing effective background noise during learning is crucial for students. This study was conducted to determine the effective noise background during learning. Two healthy female subjects were recruited for this experiment. They were put in separate brainwave recording sessions for learning tasks without noise and with background noise. Their theta and alpha brainwave readings showed higher activity while learning with background noise. The finding indicated that both brainwaves represented insight and alertness were more dominant during active learning tasks than without noise. However, there was no statistically significant difference in both learning conditions for theta (p = 0.09) and alpha (p = 0.07) brainwaves. The higher activity level during the learning process with background noise could be interpreted as a sign of enhanced cognitive insight and alertness. Nonetheless, the magnitude of the difference observed did not reach a statistically significant level, thus necessitating further investigation and analysis.
