The Daring Librarian: Classrom Cribs! Brain Friendly Learning Spaces - 0 views

  • Remember MTV Cribs? We thought, what if that same concept of Cribs...met the classroom! From August 14th to September 14th we’ll be running a challenge that anyone can join. Here’s the details: 1. Rethink your learning space with the student in mind. What changes will enhance the learning experience? 2. Redesign your learning space and show us how you did it: Take pictures and video. 3. Create a 3-min "Cribs" video showing off your new learning space. Include a 250 word (or less) rationale for “why” you made the changes. 4. Submit your video, rationale, and bio to have a chance to be featured on our site and win great prizes!

We can (and should) create better learning environments for our students. Spaces that are centered around research and what works."
