بد نبود اما بیشتر در مورد نحوه عملکرد مغز در شرایط مختلف صحبت میکرد
میشه گفت بعضی مواردش از عهده معلم خارج ! تاثیر هورمونها بر مغز ، ساعت های مختلف یادگیری و برخی موارد دیگه خارج از حوزه اختیارات معلمه

I read this book in 2006, just before completing my masters in literacy. It was around this time I became much more interested in neuroscience, an interest that continues today. While reading it, I remember frequently wondering why we hadn't learned the concepts presented in this book in our undergraduate teaching programs. Thirteen years later, I still highly recommend this book.

The research in this books was very interesting. I tried implementing the longer increments of brain down time(recess) to thirty minutes which worked wonderfully for my students. I also agreed with many of their strategies on how to improve student learning. It specified the importance of making sure children DO NOT become frustrated while learning. This was an exceptional read suggested by a dear friend of mine.

Teaching with the Brain in Mind is a terrific resource for teachers who are trying to maximize the use of their time with students... to get the most "bang for the buck" so to speak. This book explores ideas about how the brain works; how movement, emotional states, physical environments, etc. can affect student learning. There is a lot of background knowledge about the structure and function of the different parts of the brain that I found interesting, but might be a bit heavy for some readers. The information Eric Jensen shares about how the brain learns best was fascinating to me and prompted some interesting conversations among teachers at my school during our book study meetings. A lot of the ideas in the book were great, but not specific enough for a teacher reader like me. I would have preferred some examples of real lessons that included all the components Jensen was advocating, especially how they could be applied in reading insturction (for instance, examples of lessons that had a specific activity the teacher used to change the emotional state of a student, that included the appropriate amount of settling time, or lessons with a great framing or memory strengthening component would have been helpful). I will definitely be returning to the ideas in this book while planning my lessons during the next school year, and I hope to see some great learning from my students!

So much information, and I love the way he writes, so everything is so easy to understand.

Teacher book about using brain research to inform teaching. Found out that a lot of what I already do is, in-fact, compatible with brain-research. But I also learned some new things like the link between movement and brain activity, the importance of emotions on the brain, and how boy brains and girl brains operate differently based on both nature and nurture. What I particularly liked about this book is that every chapter had a list of "practical suggestions" for educators. Because of this, I will definitely be making some small, yet significant changes in my classroom.

This book is very helpful. It explains neuroscience research on learning in a way that is easy to understand and provides some type of application for just about every theory or piece of research presented. While the applications could benefit from more detailed explanations, they are a good jumping off point for implementing ideas in the classroom. It was nice to read this and get reinforcement for a lot of things I already do, along with ideas for additional improvements in my own practice. It is a quick, easy, and useful professional read.

This was a quick and easy read and helped me sound smart at parent teacher conferences. A great book for teachers!

It's a very interesting book. To get you thinking and reconsidering most of your teaching practices. Worth reading.

An excellent resource for anyone wanting to improve their teaching in order to improve student learning. Easy to read, but not oversimplified. A good summary of brain research for non-scientists.

My context is religious education, and although this book was written primarily with academic education in mind, I found a phenomenal amount of crossover. While loaded with information about how the brain works to create learning, the author has deliberately not stopped with learning, but has drawn implications for teaching and given practical ideas and tools for teaching with the brain in mind.

Read this book for work, not bad . Several things we hear in the education world that I agree with but some Of it I don’t

Awesome information about brain and development in regards to teaching and learning.
