5 Things We Need to Get Right As we Move Back to In Person Learning

As we consider how we move back into school, we need to think about neuroscience research about how students learn. Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath talks about stress, learning duration, homework, spaced repetition, and sleep as well as computers and technology. You can't just have a longer school day to improve learning. You also can't always expect every technology to improve learning either.  www.coolcatteacher.com/e731 Sponsor: Advancement Courses' Tournament of Teachers bracket challenge is back again for the fourth year in a row and voting is now open from March 22 to March 31.
