<p>From an award-winning neuroscience researcher with twenty years of teaching experience, <i>Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain</i> uses educator-friendly language to explain how the brain learns. Steering clear of “neuro-myths,” Dr. Janet Zadina discusses multiple brain pathways for learning and provides practical advice for creating a brain-compatible classroom.</p><p>While there are an abundance of books and workshops that aim to integrate education and brain science, educators are seldom given concrete, actionable advice that makes a difference in the classroom. <i>Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain</i> bridges that divide by providing examples of strategies for day-to-day instruction aligned with the latest brain science . The book explains not only the sensory/motor pathways that are familiar to most educators (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic), it also explores the lesser known pathways--reward/survival, language, social, emotional, frontal lobe, and memory/attention--and how they can be tapped to energize and enhance instruction.</p><p>Educators are forever searching for new and improved ways to convey information and inspire curiosity, and research suggests that exploiting different pathways may have a major effect on learning. <i>Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain</i> allows readers to see brain science through the eyes of a teacher—and teaching through the eyes of a brain scientist.</p>
