Are our traditional classroom methods-- lecture, homework, test, repeat-- actually effective? And if not, what techniques are? Sarma takes readers from fundamental neuroscience to cognitive psychology and beyond, to consider the future of learning. He examines the role curiosity plays in promoting a state that brain researchers call "readiness to learn"--and its dark twin, "unreadiness to learn". He presents a vision for learning that's more inclusive and democratic-- revealing a world bursting with powerful learners, just waiting for the chance they deserve. -- adapted from jacket   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 370.1523 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 370.1523 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 370.1523 Sa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
