Research on the brainÂ hasÂ shownÂ that emotion plays a key role in learning, but how can educatorsÂ applyÂ that research inÂ their day-to-day interactions with students? What are some teaching strategies that take advantage of what we know about the brain?
EngageÂ the BrainÂ answers these questions with easy-to-understand explanations ofÂ the brain'sÂ emotion networksÂ and how they affect learning, paired with specific suggestions for classroom strategies that can make a real difference in how and what students learn. ReadersÂ willÂ discoverÂ how to design anÂ environment for learning that
