Brain-based learning is a strategy that is founded on students obtaining a basic understanding of how the brain is naturally designed to learn. The physical functions of the brain—i.e., how neurons connect to create neural networks, neuroplasticity, and information processing—are illuminated so that students can be empowered to create their own learning and study strategies. Students can also use brain-based learning strategies to stave off burnout, increase concentration, adapt study strategies to the level of learning needed for different academic tasks. Attendees will obtain a foundational understanding of brain-based learning.
