learning to their full potential. Brain based learning does that. Brain based learning focuses on strategies based on principles derived from an understanding of the brain (Jensen‚ 2008). The human brain is the most complex organ we have. We have been studying it extensively for years and still are not sure about everything the brain does. What we do know is that‚ in regards to learning‚ the brain is poorly designed for formal instruction (Jensen‚ 2008). Incorporating brain-based learning strategies into

Introduction When the brain reads it can be magical. Researchers has been amazed about what the brain can do while it is reading. It can use both of the reading and sound system at the same time. Learning to read can be easier with the right help. Researchers have found what works best and students can improve reading by using their tools and strategies. Subtopic 1: The Brain (how learning works) describe the process of reading There are circuits in the brain‚ and they have to

Brain Based Learning For many years science and education have concentrated on learning and the mind‚ but today’s neuroscientists and educators are seeing learning from a different scope – the brain. From this viewpoint‚ learning is creating links – by linking the information in which the student has prior knowledge or interest‚ the student is able to expand upon this and learn something else which he can relate it to. For example‚ in a history class when discussing Native Americans‚ a teacher

The split brain phenomenon refers to a surgical processor that involves surgeons cut the corpus callosum that connects the left and right hemisphere. This surgery is done for patients who suffer severe epilepsy. These split brain patients reveal that the information it processed and coordinated

the Brain written by Michael S. Gazzaniga explores neuroscience that took place within the last 50 years. In his book‚ Gazzaniga begins telling his own story as a young neuroscientist who was developing a soon to be well known theory on split brains. Divided into four parts‚ part one of the book titled “Discovering the Brain” starts out while Gazzaniga wat attending Dartmouth College‚ and was moving on to Caltech for an internship. At Caltech‚ Gazzaniga got hooked on the idea of split brain research
