This book was released on 2010-12-20 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Establishing the parameters and goals of the new field of mind, brain, and education science. A groundbreaking work, Mind, Brain, and Education Science explains the new transdisciplinary academic field that has grown out of the intersection of neuroscience, education, and psychology. The trend in “brain-based teaching” has been growing for the past twenty years and has exploded in the past five to become the most authoritative pedagogy for best learning results. Aimed at teachers, teacher trainers and policy makers, and anyone interested in the future of education in America and beyond, Mind, Brain, and Education Science responds to the clamor for help in identifying what information could and should apply in classrooms with confidence, and what information is simply commercial hype. Combining an exhaustive review of the literature, as well as interviews with over twenty thought leaders in the field from six different countries, this book describes the birth and future of this new and groundbreaking discipline. Mind, Brain, and Education Science looks at the foundations, standards, and history of the field, outlining the ways that new information should be judged. Well-established information is elegantly separated from “neuromyths” to help teachers split the wheat from the chaff in classroom planning, instruction and teaching methodology.

Download or read book Brain Literacy for Educators and Psychologists written by Virginia W. Berninger and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2002-06-06 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although educators are expected to bring about functional changes in the brain--the organ of human learning--they are given no formal training in the structure, function or development of the brain in formal or atypically developing children as part of their education. This book is organized around three conceptual themes: First, the interplay between nature (genetics) and nurture (experience and environment) is emphasized. Second, the functional systems of the brain are explained in terms of how they lead to reading, writing and mathematics and the design of instruction. Thirdly, research is presented, not as a finished product, but as a step forward within the field of educational neuropsychology. The book differs from neuropsychology and neuroscience books in that it is aimed at practitioners, focuses on high incidence neuropsychological conditions seen in the classroom, and is the only book that integrates both brain research with the practice of effective literacy, and mathematics instruction of the general and special education school-aged populations.

Download or read book Neuro Education written by Chris Merideth and published by . This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order for neuroeducation to be a legitimate field, it must be anchored by scientific research that proves its efficacy. This research has culminated in the creation of the Neuro-Semantic Language Learning Theory (NsLLT), proposed by Dr. Ellyn Arwood, which is the primary lens of translation from research to educational practice used in this book. This anthology documents how eleven contributing authors have used the principles of the NsLLT to transform their classrooms into laboratories of learning. This publication is the first volume to provide evidence of the gains that are possible by incorporating the NsLLT into brain-based instruction. Educators, parents, and anyone who works with struggling students can use the methods presented here to revolutionize their approach to facilitating learning in these vulnerable populations.
