Product Description Doctors could never do their job
without understanding the body. How can learners do
their job without understanding the brain? Here's the
ideal resource to introduce your learners to brain basics.
Through hands-on, inquiry based learning opportunities,
learners will develop their understanding of the brain
and its relationship to learning. Stress and its impact
on learning will be explored, along with focus centres
on brain waves and learning, music and learning, brain
food and water, switch ons and switch offs, memory and
learning, and brain gym® and learning.
AND THERE'S MORE...
The brain basics package has been created through an
inquiry approach known as the petite!nQ™ inquiry
framework; a framework that identifies the stages of
the natural learning process through an annotated pictorial
model. Use of this framework, empowers students to learn
independently through a process that mirrors real life
thinking and learning. Learning styles, multiple intelligence
theory, information/communication technologies, student
self assessment and evaluation, are seamlessly infused
into the petite!nQuiry™ framework and thus into
the design of the brain basics resource package.
