      Many of these Brain Targets require a minimum of change in the classroom

      I like how the author broke it down to give quick ways to do these ideas!

      Technology lends itself to timely feedback.
  • Usable classroom translation: make regular changes in your classroom such as seating arrangements, wall displays
  • Usable classroom translation: Give students the big picture; visually represent the connections between previous knowledge and new learning; indicate relationships among learning goals.

  • Usable classroom translation: stress impedes learning
  • Usable classroom translation: Creativity can be taught but it builds on a body of content knowledge being mastered. Interweave information and thinking in all content areas; show real world applications, move away from simple, single-answer problems to encourage divergent solutions.

      I think this is an important piece - being able to apply info. is true learning.

      Interesting targets to teach the way the brain learns...
  • When you’re standing in front of a classroom of students who’re not quite sure they even want to be in your class, much less pay attention to what’s being said
  • Brain Target 2: Creating the Physical Learning Environment
  • Brain Target 1: Establish the emotional climate for learning
  • Brain Target 3: Designing the Learning Experience
  • Neuroscience: The brain feels before it thinks. The amygdala (think fight/flight) receives stimuli 40 milliseconds
  • Neuroscience: The brain craves novelty. Posner & Rothbart, 2007); lighting, background noise impact on attention;
  • Neuroscience behind it: The brain looks for patterns between known and unknown information (Posner & Rothbart
  • Brain Target 4: Teaching for Mastery
  • Neuroscience behind it: In order for information to be retained it must make its way from short-term to long-term memory.
  • Brain Target 5: Teaching for the Extension Neuroscience behind it: The brain is plastic. Significant changes occur in the brain due to repeated sensory experience (Fu & Zuo,2011, Karmarkar & Dan, 2006)
  • Brain Target 6: Evaluating Learning Neuroscience behind it: Assessments provides feedback that informs and motivates students; retrieval of information recruits memory systems, reinforcing memory for that information.

      Making connections between new and old information is so integral to helping students learn.
