Neuropsychology for Teachers

Neuropsychology holds a unique fascination, the way the brain functions in order for us to survive in the world and it's adaptability when damaged never fails to surprise us.  How we can use our understanding of damaged brain to increase our knowledge of the intact brain is Dr Ashok Jansari's specialism.  In this interview we consider how our understanding of neuropsychology can applied to the classroom through neuroplasticity, prosopagnosia (face blindness), the importance of sleep and the role of the prefrontal cortex. You can find out more about Dr Jansari here, his work here, or watch his videos here.  The link to join his talk this evening (23/3/21) is here.
