Have you ever considered how the brain learns new skills? Professor Bruce McCandliss and his team at @StanfordEd are unlocking some of the mysteries of our most important organ. https://t.co/BUYNfXzgmL

“So, how does going to school change the brain[?]... We have only just begun to answer this question.”

The research in the #BrainwaveLearningCenter is one way we’re doing that!

[Learning & the Brain @learningandtheb]

Silvia Bunge asks: how does going to school change brains?

* Does attending 1st grade improve self-regulation?

* Does it change the neural circuits that support self-regulation?

One more provocative question:

* Would children learn better from PLAY?

[Liz Toomarian @etoomari]

There's not much empirical research on the development of synesthesia, primarily because it's difficult to recruit young synesthetes. @RadhikaGosavi knows the struggle...

Since working @SynapseSchool I've met at least 3, including 2 w/ number forms! So. Many. Experiment. Ideas.
