#MondayMotivation - The 3rd Edition of 'The Woman who Changed her Brain' will be released on 30th Dec 2019. There's a preview to a new case study featured of Isaac, whose life has been transformed with new possibilities as a result of #ArrowsmithProgram!
Arrowsmith uses neuroscience insights into how the brain learns and how we can approach learning difficulties differently. Learn more about how this impacts teaching those with difficulties. #Ldmonth https://t.co/RZF338xp3T
Did you know? The typical student at Arrowsmith School: is of average or above average intelligence and has a combination of learning dysfunctions. Learn more about suitability of the #ArrowsmithProgram for you or your child. https://t.co/FeGy8WmGGJ #changingminds
"I did this piece of art because I think art can represent all sorts of things like religion and feelings, but in my case I am representing Arrowsmith fighting the word monster (dyslexia). Arrowsmith has helped me heaps; my memory and spelling is much better." - Talei, aged 12
"The brain is like Velcro for negative experiences, but Teflon for positive ones. The result is tilted against lasting contentment and fulfillment." An excellent article adapted from the book "Mother Nurture" by Rick Hanson, Ph.D https://t.co/6pJwGn4EVI
“Use It or Lose It: How #Neurogenesis Keeps the Brain Fit for Learning” by Tracey Shors explains how to keep #brain cells alive & integrate them into brain circuits involved in #learning: http://63.143.39.162/~rcirutge/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/shors-use-it-or-lose-it.pdf
Thank you #RefreshSeattle2019 & @OverlakeChurch for letting @ArrowsmithHCA and our #LABprogram be at the conference last weekend. Special thanks to all foster/adoptive parents for the good you are bringing into this world and for letting your home become a God Central Station!
Watch Sandrine Thuret’s fascinating TED talk on the fact that our brains can grow new brain cells throughout our lifespan in the hippocampus, an area involved in memory and learning: https://t.co/DmLknzAMas #BrainWeek#BrainAwarenessWeek
Recent advances in educational neuroscience are helping educators understand the critical role they play in building brain capacities important to students’ learning and self-control. https://t.co/9vy0pgW9lk #teachersforfuture#thankateacher#BrainAwarenessWeek#BrainWeek
In 1977, Barbara Arrowsmith Young hypothesized that targeted cognitive exercises could change the brain; these new #research results provide evidence that the #ArrowsmithProgram is changing students' fundamental capacity to learn. https://t.co/xrvtJMfc7t #neuroplasticity
