Too Scared to Learn: Teaching that Makes a Difference to Successful Learning
Presented by Jenny Horsman
Friday, May 16th, 2014
2:00 - 3:00 PM EDT
Here's the description from the registration page:
The latest brain research provides solid ground for opening new conversations and exploring simple strategies that make teaching and learning less frustrating. Paying attention to how to create new pathways in the brain, to reshape the brain in the aftermath of trauma, should be at the core of teaching, not the extra we believe we have no time for when going gets tough. This session will provide a brief straight-forward introduction to the brain research, what to do in the classroom, and where to find further resources.
