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 Using Brain Based Research and a Problem Based Learning Strategy to Improve Student Engagement Learning and Writing Skills in a Career Choices Curriculum written by Geraldine A. Prater and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inquiry project examines brain-based research and how to apply findings to increase student engagement and learning in a Stanwood High School vocational education Career Chooices course. The inquiry focuses on adolescent learning; best practice teaching skills; and problem-based learning as a possible teaching strategy to connect real world experience to the classroom and to provide students with the skills necessary for the world of work. Strategies were evaluated for their potential to help students meet State Career and Technical Education course standards and grade level expectations in writing skills. Results showed a need for strengthening teaching methods and classroom management to meet the needs of diverse learners. In addition, the inquiry showed that the student centered, collaborative problem-based learning model had real potential for a Career Choices Class but that students would need to be taught the skills they needed to fully utilize problem-based learning.

Download or read book Using Brain based Strategies to Increase Motivation Cognition and Long term Memory of Biology Concepts written by Rachel L. Gray and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brain-based education focuses on how we learn and the effects our emotions play in the learning process. This project looked at the effect of using brain-based strategies in the classroom on understanding, motivation, and long-term retention of biology concepts. This project spanned three units in two biology classes. The first unit was taught using traditional lecture, videos, diagramming activities, and PowerPoint shows. The other two units incorporated brain-based strategies such as team building activities, positive feedback, use of multiple intelligences, and student choice. Pre- and post assessments were used to evaluate student learning and constructed response essays were used to determine long-term retention of concepts. Student attitude surveys along with pre- and post interviews were used to determine whether there was an increase in motivation as a result of treatment. Overall, the use of brain-based strategies had a positive effect on student understanding, motivation and long-term retention of biology concepts as well as had a positive impact on the classroom environment and peer interactions.
Download or read book Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain written by Janet Zadina and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-06-09 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From an award-winning neuroscience researcher with twenty years of teaching experience, Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain uses educator-friendly language to explain how the brain learns. Steering clear of “neuro-myths,” Dr. Janet Zadina discusses multiple brain pathways for learning and provides practical advice for creating a brain-compatible classroom. While there are an abundance of books and workshops that aim to integrate education and brain science, educators are seldom given concrete, actionable advice that makes a difference in the classroom. Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain bridges that divide by providing examples of strategies for day-to-day instruction aligned with the latest brain science . The book explains not only the sensory/motor pathways that are familiar to most educators (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic), it also explores the lesser known pathways--reward/survival, language, social, emotional, frontal lobe, and memory/attention--and how they can be tapped to energize and enhance instruction. Educators are forever searching for new and improved ways to convey information and inspire curiosity, and research suggests that exploiting different pathways may have a major effect on learning. Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain allows readers to see brain science through the eyes of a teacher—and teaching through the eyes of a brain scientist.
