Neuroscience and Learning
The New Age
WORKSHOP FOCUS
Neuroscientific research has exploded onto the teaching scene in the last twenty years. It is estimated we learnt in the 1990’s the equivalent of what we had learnt about the brain in the previous 300 years! This rate has not slowed, but is speeding up. Nathan aims to summarise this research in an easy to understand and easy to apply to practice way. How does this effect teaching and learning? How important is the connection between teacher and learner? Nathan will explore these questions in relation to the research, and in applying this research to practice.
