A Coles-notes book on all the brain-based research related to teaching and learning. Multiple Intelligences, Left vs Right brain, learning styles, and emotional intelligence are addressed. There are questionnaires for the teacher to complete, explanations, applications, and student questionaires. The book is best for Primary/Junior teachers who have more curricular freedom and are empowered to teach more hidden curriculum (aka life skills) than high school teachers.
