Offers educators practical application of recent brain research through the Brain-Targeted Teaching Model—an instructional framework that uses current brain research to guide teachers in planning, implementing, and evaluating instruction. This model will increase the potential of brain research to inform instructional strategies and to suggest ways to organize schools or design curriculum on a school-wide or district-wide basis. Features: · Description of brain anatomy · Current brain research findings · Suggestions to provide a supportive yet challenging emotional climate for learning · Highlights the important role the physical environment plays in learning · Ideas for enhancing instruction through organized and attractive classroom space · Stages of planning and implementing a learning unit Intended for classroom teachers at any grade level as well as those who support instruction in schools of higher education.

Mariale Hardiman's work, uses a unique application of research from the fields of neurology and education to create a comprehensive teaching modelThe Brain-Targeted Teaching Model provides a novel instructional framework that all educators, whether novice or experienced, could use to plan, implement, and assess a sound program of instruction. This book is a must not only for teachers, but for every school administrator who wants to be on the cutting edge of educational reform. -- Dr. Joseph Procaccini, graduate professor of educational administration, Loyola College
Teachers who use the learning units in the Brain-Targeted Teaching Model will have a thorough framework for developing effective learning experiences for all students." -- Linda Bluth and Gwyn Powell, classroom teachers, Baltimore city public schools
A compelling and readable book. * Baltimore's Child *
This book offers a revolutionary approach that connects the fields of education and brain research. The book is aimed at educators and gives specific examples on how to target different brain mechanisms when teaching. It describes associative learning mechanisms at each stage of a teaching model. This work is a welcome addition to current educational theory and practice as it lays the foundation for a new approach to teaching. -- Dr. Steven Hsiao, neuroscientist, Krieger Mind/Brain Institute, Johns Hopkins University
