Learning, Teaching, and the Brain: A Practical Guide for Educators bridges classroom practice and research. Dr. Schenck provides hundreds of practical, research based and classroom tested teaching tips, as well as greater depth of information than most brain-based learning materials. While directed toward educators, this book is also helpful to anyone who is involved with the learning process, whether teacher, administrator or parent. Much of the material is presented with a fresh approach, with numerous actual examples born of both experience in the classroom and research. Readers will find numerous specific suggestions in how to match instruction and learning with the brain's processing. Learning, Teaching, and The Brain is an enormously practical book that all educators should be familiar with.
