OUT OF THE BOX…. 35 HUMAN BRAINBrain-based learning theory is based on current researchabout the structure and function of the brain. Brain-basedteaching is all about understanding the principles of brainresearch and using strategies in a purposeful way based onthese principles. What we know about how the brain workshas a significant impact on curriculum, instruction andassessment. For example, we know that learning activitiesthat are complex, interactive experiences; that engagestudents actively in solving real problems; and that aremeaningful and challenging are highly effective. Manyauthors have taken some of the latest scientific medicalfindings related to the brain and applied them to learning.The following is a brief summary of brain-compatiblefundamentals for teachers  Memory and learning are closely tied to emotions; permanent learning almost always has an emotional component.  Oxygen, water, sleep, certain foods, and movement affect students‟ brains and their learning.  The brain remembers information more readily when it is meaningful and can be linked to prior knowledge or experience.  The human brain is not designed for long periods of attentiveness without mental and physical breaks.  It takes time and repetition for new knowledge and skills to become permanent in long-term memory.  Opportune periods for learning vary through a person‟s lifespan. There are prime developmental and learning time periods for different types of learning.  Opportune time periods for learning vary throughout a student‟s day, and within a teacher‟s‟ lesson.  Enrichment practices can heighten learning for all students. Examples include problem solving, music and physical environment.  Formative assessment and prompt, specific, and meaningful feedback can enhance the learning process.  The human brain is a social brain. Students learn effectively through collaborating with others, both adults and peers. PRESENTED BY PRIYANKA VISHWAKARMA
