Synopsis

In this second edition of Brain-Compatible Classrooms, author Robin Fogarty has synthesized new research and addressed the role of standards in the brain-compatible classroom. Fogarty′s work is based on four principles:

Setting the climate for thinking

Teaching the skills of thinking

Structuring the interaction with thinking

Thinking about thinking

As brain research explodes, parents, teachers, educators, and students are intrigued with the emergent knowledge of how their brain/mind remembers and learns. This valuable resource provides the bridge from research to practice for teachers who want to use the latest findings to create high-achievement classrooms.
