User-friendly, interactive, accessible and practical, the Learning to Learn resources bring science and brain theory pioneered in the past few decades to the arena of learning. Putting into practice an advanced understanding of how the brain works, Garry Burnett leads us through a compelling process of finding the best learning strategies for each individual - a process that involves using the two sides of the brain, revealing different learning talents, and examining every aspect of the learning experience. Each unit will have detailed teacher plans, using a structured, effective learning cycle that will: -utilise a range of learning styles with visual, auditory and kinesthetic inputs; -exercise a variety of thinking skills; -address the development of the Multiple Intelligences.

An exciting series of learning guides for teachers and parents, the Learning to Learn book, which comes with a FREE audio CD; CD-ROM, and video, can be purchased separately or as a complete learning pack. Recommended to those eager to try out new ideas and wanting the best possible results, the Learning to Learn set will revolutionize your teaching approach, and aid in the development of confident and resourceful learners. Suitable for ages 11-14/Key Stage 3.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very highly recommended treasure trove of ideas, December 8, 2002
This review is from: Learning to Learn (Paperback)
Learning To Learn: Making Learning Work For All Students by Garry Burnett (Advanced Skills Teacher, Malet Lambert School, Hull, England) is an original and superbly organized resource designed especially for teachers of students age 11-14. Steps and sample exercises for overcoming psychological barriers, for discovering inspiration and emotional intelligence, as well as tips, tricks, and techniques for making better use of one's memory, and a great deal more are presented in a thoroughly "user friendly" format. Photocopiable exercises and a companion audio CD round out this very highly recommended treasure trove of ideas and methods for improving a student's scholarly skills.
