Description:
Discover the instructional implications of the latest brain research and theories and how they relate to best practices for teaching Inquiry-Based Science and Mathematics. Educators review the research of Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence theory and apply the theory to their own teaching situations. Participants learn to develop lessons that initiate the primary intelligences of each student and create effective patterns for learning in the Science and Math classroom through a rich assortment of real world activities in Life Science, Physical Science, Health Science and Earth Science. This course combines theory and practice to create exciting and motivating life-learning experiences for today's students and adult learners.
