Sommario/riassunto |
|
An expanded and updated ASCD best-seller where renowned educator and consultant Patricia Wolfe introduces you to the anatomy and physiology of the brain and explains teaching strategies that match how the brain learns best through projects, simulations, visuals, music, writing, and mnemonics. Plus, an all-new section explores brain development from birth through adolescence; the role of exercise, sleep, nutrition, and technology on the brain; and the importance of neuroplasticity. |
