Brain-Based Learning Webinar Series CEU-Approved

60 Min | May 27th, 2020 | Presented by Martha S. Burns, PhD

Upending the COVID Slide with Neuroscience

Research on summer learning loss has revealed the potentially devastating impact of COVID-19-induced school closures on student academic achievement. But there is some positive news. In a new book entitled How the Brain Learns, neuroscientist Stanislas Dehaene reviews four pillars of learning that teachers can incorporate to accelerate student learning, both through remote instruction and in the classroom. These pillars of learning also provide a guideline for selecting educational technology that can help override the COVID slide. This webinar reviews the research on how the brain learns with examples of instructional practices as well as technology consistent with Dehaene’s four pillars of learning.

Let’s Focus: Developing Executive Function from Kindergarten through High School

How do educators reach students who cannot focus in the classroom? Educators often think the ability to focus is related to motivation, that when a student “wants to listen,” she will. Educational scientists now understand attention is not a desire, but a skill: it is a self-regulatory “executive function,” related to goal-setting, organization, planning, and short-term memory. Join Dr. Martha Burns to learn more about executive functions, how teachers can build these skills through classroom activities, and how to augment student skills with technology when necessary.

The Positive Student Impact of Social-Emotional Learning and Neuroscience-Based Approaches

Educators have a powerful effect on the social-emotional development of children. New research points to SEL approaches that maximize educators’ positive impact on students affected by Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). This presentation will review the new research on the effects of ACEs and environmental stress on brain maturation and learning, then turn attention to the research on Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) associated with positive educational outcomes. The webinar will conclude with suggestions for the use of individualized instruction combined with technology to build academic skills as well as the confidence to achieve in all students.

Breaking Bad: Tackling Behavior Problems at the Core

We often see behaviors at school that are detrimental to both the students exhibiting the behavior and those around them. Many times, inattention, hyperactivity, impulsivity and even aggression may be more than a student demonstrating that he or she is bored, acting out or seeking attention. These behavioral issues interfere with student learning because they are disruptive or consume a lot of class time, but have we truly considered what foundational issues are behind those actions? What if we could address the actual core problems causing those behaviors rather than just continually dealing with the symptoms? Join Dr. Martha Burns to find out what these ongoing student behaviors may be masking and what you can do to turn things around for the students who may need your efforts the most.
