The Neural Teaching Guide showcases the innovative practices of K-12 teachers who are effectively applying findings from educational neuroscience into their classrooms. Educators today have remarkable opportunities to understand how the complex and often malleable functions of the brain affect learning, behavior, and social-emotional dynamics, but what practical strategies come out of this information? Authored by in-service teachers around the country, this book showcases a variety of brain-based approaches - cutting-edge yet intuitive, evidence-based yet accessibly translated - to helping children realize their potential at school. Both novice and veteran K-12 teachers alike will be reinvigorated to enhance students' engagement and curiosity, nurture positive behaviors and self-regulation, support interest-based activities and inclusive interactions, identify biases and struggles, and more.
