Brain-Friendly Assessments: What They Are and How to Use Them

Learning Sciences International

Research has shown that as children interact daily with technology, their brains are being molded and changed; in short, technology is rewiring children's brains. How does this affect learning, and how should teachers redesign their instructional practice accordingly? In this four-page quick reference guide, educational neuroscience author Dr. David A. Sousa gives teachers research-based strategies they can use during instruction to address the cerebral areas where rewiring occurs — attention systems, memory networks, thinking processes, and social skills. Dr. Sousa pulls key points from his award-winning book Engaging the Rewired Brain to help teachers shift their classrooms from teacher-centered to student-centered by using techniques such as project-based learning, differentiation, and flipped classrooms. Teachers will also learn how to incorporate humor, games and technological tools to motivate and engage digital natives all in an illustrated, easy-to-use format that makes it a breeze for teachers to recall the information they need in the midst of instruction.

The Brain that Does the Work is the Brain that Learns. In many classrooms, the teacher's role is to talk and the student's role is to listen. Whose brain is doing most of the work in this scenario? Authors Michael D. Toth and David A. Sousa present an alternative: a new pedagogical model called student-led academic teaming. In academic teams, students collaborate, peer coach, and peer teach while engaging in rigorous, standards-based tasks a combination that leads to true social, emotional, and cognitive learning (SECL). The evidence to support the power of student teams includes: A groundbreaking 10,000-student research study on a large urban district Neuroscience and other scientific research Experiences from superintendents, school leaders, teachers, and students from dozens of demonstration schools around the country Connections to social-emotional skills, 21st century skills, growth mindset, student engagement, student behavior, and equity and access 
 Student-led academic teaming takes familiar grouping strategies to the next level, providing a path to success for every student, in every classroom, in every school; This is the last major school reform you will ever have to make.

Students are becoming more academically and culturally diverse, making it more important than ever to shift away from a one-size-fits-all approach and toward differentiated instruction. The second edition of this best-selling book will help you create truly effective, brain-friendly classrooms for all learners. The authors share an array of updated differentiated instruction examples, scenarios, and exercises, as well as the latest educational psychology research from cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and pedagogy. Learn more about teaching diverse learners using brain-based learning strategies: 
<ul>
<li>Explore how the brain learns and approaches to differentiated instruction.</li> <li>Sharpen your knowledge of developmental cognitive neuroscience and educational psychology to teach the best content in the best possible way.</li> <li>Use the knowledge of educational neuroscience (neuroeducation) to benefit the students you teach.</li> <li>Design and implement strategies for effective differentiated instruction.</li> <li>Create a positive and productive learning environment that supports diversity in the classroom.</li>
