    Study Notes

    Key Principles of Learning

    • Learning is an active process that involves personal engagement and participation.
    • The more senses involved in learning, the better the learning experience.
    • Emotion plays a significant role in increasing retention and learning.

    Effective Learning Strategies

    • Connecting learning to students' everyday life makes abstract concepts more understandable.
    • Good teaching goes beyond recall of information and focuses on developing higher-order thinking skills.
    • An integrated teaching approach is more effective than teaching isolated bits of information.

    Multiple Intelligences

    • There are several types of multiple intelligences, including:
      • Verbal-Linguistic
      • Logical-Mathematical
      • Spatial
      • Bodily-Kinesthetic
      • Musical
      • Interpersonal
      • Intrapersonal
      • Naturalistic

    Brain-Based Research Findings

    • Information remains in working memory for only about 15-20 seconds without rehearsal or constant attention.
    • Learning is a process of building neural networks through concrete experience, representational learning, and abstract learning.
    • The brain has difficulty comprehending very large numbers without a relatable context.
    • The eyes contain nearly 70% of the body's sensory receptors and play a crucial role in visual processing.

    Strategies for Effective Learning

    • Involving students in real-life or authentic problem-solving activities.
    • Using projects to increase meaning and motivation.
    • Simulations and role plays as meaning makers.
    • Classroom strategies using visual processing, such as:
      • Songs, jingles, and raps.
      • Mnemonic strategies.
      • Writing strategies.
      • Active Review.
      • Hands-on activities.

    Characteristics of an Integrated Approach

    • Incorporates successful, research-based, and brain-based instructional strategies.
    • Considers multiple intelligences and varied learning styles.
    • Includes the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and values.
    • Is interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary.
