Riassunto:

If you want to know more about the brain and learning, this is the book you need. In what promises to become the bible of the brain-based learning movement, Alistair Smith guides the reader through the development cycle of the brain and then describes what helps and hinders learning. A fascinating, highly topical and well researched book that answers your questions and gives you guidance. - How do I help my child improve at maths? - What is the best time for my child to begin formal learning? - Can I control my own fears? If so, how? - What factors in a mother's lifestyle will influence her baby's learning? - What is the best time to learn any language? - Why will the children in my class not sit still? - Can you teach intelligence? - How does sleep improve all-round memory and recall? - What happens to my brain as I age? - How can I recognise a learner under stress? What can I do about it? - What should I know about differences in the left and right sides of my brain? - Should we teach boys and girls separately? - What is a memory? Does it exist somewhere in the brain? - What does brain science tell us about selection by ability? The Brain's Behind It identifies fallacies, fads and facts about the brain and learning and gives recommendations for parents, educators and policy-makers.
