Publisher's Synopsis
In this second edition of Brain-Compatible Classrooms, author Robin Fogarty has synthesized new research and addressed the role of standards in the brain-compatible classroom. Fogarty′s work is based on four principles:
Setting the climate for thinking
Teaching the skills of thinking
Structuring the interaction with thinking
Thinking about thinking
As brain research explodes, parents, teachers, educators, and students are intrigued with the emergent knowledge of how their brain/mind remembers and learns. This valuable resource provides the bridge from research to practice for teachers who want to use the latest findings to create high-achievement classrooms.
