Writing, Thinking, and the Brain exposes the invisible thinking behind writing to help both the teacher and the learner identify personal learning trajectories for better outcomes. Writing is the highest form of thinking, as evidenced by neuroimaging that shows how more neural networks are activated simultaneously during writing than during any other cognitive activity. This book will help teachers understand how the brain learns to write by unveiling 15 stages of thinking that underpin the writing process, along with targeted ways to stimulate them to maximize each individual's writing potential.

Incorporating the principles of neuroscience not only transforms the practices that take place in the classroom, but also empowers teachers, equipping them with the tools they need to feel and be successful in their work. Written in a lighthearted, easy-to-read format, author C. Bobbi Hansen showcases the potential of brain-informed practices to empower teachers and learners alike.

What Brain Research Says about Student Learning provides parents and teachers the most recent findings in brain research and learning theory in a very approachable way. The reader will see how the child's brain develops, learns, remembers, and creates new meaning and understanding. User-friendly discussions of learning and teaching theories will show strategies both parents and teachers can use to capitalize on this new understanding about the child's developing brain.

An exciting introduction to the scientific interface between biological studies of the brain and behavioural studies of human development. The authors trace the field from its roots in developmental psychology and neuroscience, and highlight some of the most persuasive research findings before anticipating future directions the field may take.

In an attempt to foster effective learning for the students, educators and researchers have been examining the complex relations between psychological, biological, sociological, and cultural aspects of the educative process. The common goal is to promote deep learning and maximize the potential of next-generation students in constructing knowledge, understanding, supporting, and advancing skills in their chosen fields. In the past decades, scientists and educational researchers are developing a new understanding of how the brain works and gaining knowledge of brain research that can transform how they teach in class.

Establishing a Leadership Mindset provides a more natural approach to obtaining buy-in for constant growth by harnessing the power of strategies proven by cognitive science and brain physiology. By fostering greater purpose and passion in the intentional efforts of educators, the goal is to achieve leadership throughout the team or organization.
