Brain-Based Learning an approach to teaching that is grounded in the latest
research on how the brain learns best. Strategies that
align with the natural learning processes of the brain,
making education more effective and engaging.
Factors like emotion, environment, repetition, and
individual neurological differences significantly impact
how well students learn.
Multisensory Instruction Brain retains information better when multiple senses
are engaged.
Brain Breaks The brain needs time to process and consolidate
information. Implementing short breaks during lessons
can improve focus and retention.
This is also tied to ideas of "cognitive load," the theory
that the brain has limited processing capacity at any
given time, and too much sensory or informational
input can overwhelm learners.
4 Exemplary Areas for Learning as a 1) Modeling learning progressions and adapting
Science learning experiences, resources, and feedback to
support learners' progress.
2) Collaborative learning and scaffolding, scripting,
and orchestrating social interaction.
3) Simulations, visualization, modeling, and
representation.
4) Opportunities to engage in hands-on constructive
activities.
, 10 Key Learning as a Science Principles 1) Environment
2) Student's physical well-being
3) Learning is a process that involves effort, mistakes,
reflection, and refinement.
4) Motivated to learn through autonomy, interests,
and understanding the purpose.
5) Think deeply about the "to-be-learned" material to
pay attention, build memories, and make meaning.
6) Retrieval practice.
7) Spacing out learning and interweaving different
content.
8) Communicating high expectations.
9) Students feel safe in their learning.
10) Collaboration and social interaction.
Retrieval Practice A learning strategy where you actively recall
information from memory, rather than passively
reviewing it.
Strengthens memory; helps students flexibly apply
what they learn, which strengthens the neural
pathways associated with that information.
Collaboration and social interaction Encourages deeper processing
Deliberately creating learning spaces, Increases learning
including desk placement, lighting, etc.
Strategies to elaborate on learning: 1) Summarizing
2) Drawing
Summarizing to create a verbal description that distills the most
important information from a set of materials
Drawings they use graphic strategies to portray important
concepts and relationships
