Students in successful classrooms not only understand what they are learning, but why they are learning it and how it connects to the world beyond the classroom. Whether it is designing all the components to make a house in a high school maths/technology class or reading a home reader in primary school, students are able to connect with the what, how and why of learning.

Our brain’s prefrontal cortex is thought to filter out irrelevant thoughts. This helps us concentrate better in a chaotic world. But maybe this isn’t always helpful. Like when we want to think creatively.

Dentro de mis limitaciones con el idioma inglés, lo que más me sorprende es el nivel de pensamiento crítico que tienen estos chicos. ¿Estamos promoviendo este nivel de calidad de interacción en nuestras escuelas? ¿Estamos capacitados para valorar y poner en juego nosotros, como adultos, estas competencias relacionales y comunicativas? De esto comienzo a ocuparme intensamente este año. Talleres al respecto próximamente en AWAYO! Delete the scoop?

I like this poster. Learning psychology is about explaining or outlining a theory, followed by evidence in the form of research, ending with critical evaluative commentary. This will be helpful for students.
