This book goes beyond neuroscience explanations of learning to demonstrate exactly what works in the classroom and why. Lessons from mind, brain, and education science are put into practice using students as a “lab” to test these theories. Strategies and approaches for doing so and a general list of “best practices” will guide and serve teachers, administrators, and parents.
Wonderful book for teachers and wannabe teachers. The book contains a lot of info and it is recommended for those with interest or experience in teaching. A good starting point for those interested in education reform.
Another excellent educational neuroscience book that made neuroscience easy to understand and apply in my own classroom. I've been referring to this book a lot for my papers in my M.Ed program, and I probably will continue to do so for the next while.
