About this book

Formerly a SkyLight publication.

Student Brains, School Issues: A Collection of Articles is packed with information on how the brain learns, the nature of intelligence, and the vital role that emerging technology plays in how students process information.

We are in the midst of the two most significant revolutions in the history of education: brain research and computer technology. Learn what researchers are discovering about the biological aspects of learning and how this, along with growing technology, is changing the nature of the classroom. This resource, which helps you to understand and incorporate computer technology and the findings from brain research in teaching and learning, focuses on four significant areas:

  • The nature of the cognitive science revolution
  • The importance of emotion in cognition
  • The biological substrate of intelligence
  • The relationship between brains and computers in computational thought processes
Take advantage of this wealth of information on brain research. It will help you to make the commitment and to take the challenge to become a leader in the transformation of our schools and our profession.

Teaching as If Learning Matters: Pedagogies of Becoming by Next-Generation Faculty
<p>Teaching is an essential skill in becoming a faculty member in any institution of higher education. Yet how is that skill actually acquired by graduate students? <i>Teaching as if Learning Matters</i> collects first-person narratives from graduate students and new PhDs that explore how the skills required to teach at a college level are developed. It examines the key issues that graduate students face as they learn to teach effectively when in fact they are still learning and being taught. <br /> <br />Featuring contributions from over thirty graduate students from a variety of disciplines at Indiana University, <i>Teaching as if Learning Matters</i> allows these students to explore this topic from their own unique perspectives. They reflect on the importance of teaching to them personally and professionally, telling of both successes and struggles as they learn and embrace teaching for the first time in higher education.</p>
