Book Description
David Sousa’s practical and powerful bestseller on brain research and education enters the 21st century with a valuable updated edition, incorporating the previously published main text, the companion learning manual, and the latest discoveries in neuroscience and learning. How the Brain Learns has always focused on the information that can help teachers turn research on brain function into practical classroom activities and lessons.

And now Sousa takes it further, building on the latest information available to provide: An updated Information Processing Model that reflects new terminology regarding the memory system Exciting new research on how the brain learns motor skills A whole new chapter on the implications of the arts in learning An expanded list of primary sources for those who wish to review the core research All the newest information and insights are included. It’s a vital tool for school leaders, staff developers, teacher educators, and administration education faculty—as well as any educator who wants to help students learn.
