Description\Summary
This book builds on the insights offered by recent discoveries about the biological basis of learning, and on his definitions of teaching, learning and education. It provides teachers with a map to develop their own teaching philosophy, and effective nuts-and-bolts advice. The approach is particularly useful for those facing a cohort of first-year students less prepared for college and university. It helps to develop the students habits and skills that will equip them for a lifetime of learning.
