Brain-based learning
Is an approach to teaching based on research in neuroscience. It suggests that our brain learns naturally. This theory is based on what is currently known about the structure and function of the brain at the varying stages of development.
What is peer tutoring and how you will develop peer tutoring in your own classroom?
My masterals presentation will present you a simple but educated presentation of Peer Tutoring.
The 5E's is an instructional model based on the constructivist approach to learning, which says that learners build or construct new ideas on top of their old ideas. The 5 E's can be used with students of all ages, including adults. Each of the 5 E's describes a phase of learning, and each phase begins with the letter "E": Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, and Evaluate. The 5 E's allows students and teachers to experience common activities, to use and build on prior knowledge and experience, to construct meaning, and to continually assess their understanding of a concept.
In this model of learning, students learn in five sequential phases i.e. Engagement- Exploration-Explanation-Elaboration-Evaluation.

Active learning is a form of learning in which teaching strives to involve students in the learning process more directly than in other methods
The term active learning "was introduced by the English scholar R W Revans (1907–2003).
Active learning is a process whereby students engage in activities, such as reading, writing, discussion, or problem solving that promote analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of class content.

Given the breadth and diversity of related scientific findings, brain-based learning may take a wide variety of forms from school to school or teacher to teacher.
Brain-Based Learning: Definition, History, and Principles
Brain-based learning uses neuroscience to create an informed curriculum and lesson design. The goal? Speedy and efficient learning. The research that informs this method centers around the brain’s ability to change, remap, and reorganize itself while someone is learning new information, according to Education Reform. This ability is influenced by things like exercise, diet, and stress level. A person’s emotional state also impacts their learning ability.
When information is presented in effective ways, the brain is able to function better, its resilience is increased, and its overall working intelligence is improved. Research has also shown that the brain physically changes while learning. Thus, the more new skills are practiced, the easier learning becomes.
Using this research as a springboard, teachers implement brain-based learning principles in the classroom. They specifically focus on reducing stress, effectively delivering material, increasing students’ movement, and building in opportunities to practice. While the principles remain the same no matter the age of a student, people do begin to learn differently as they mature. So, the delivery methods of these principles adapt accordingly.
History of Brain-Based Learning
Neurological research gained momentum in the 1990s. Up until this point little was known about neural pathways, and the left and right brain theory, introduced in the 1960s, was decades old. From the 1990s up to the present day, scientists have discovered more about the brain than in all other centuries combined, according to the Global Digital Citizen Foundation.
In 1994, Geoffrey Caine and Renate Nummela Caine’s research concluded that students had increased retention and understanding of topics when in a brain-based teaching environment. Since then, brain-based learning has become a more common practice in schools.
Principles
The core principles of brain-based learning follow. Each principle lays out a formula for better retention and learning among students.
Health and Exercise
The more active and engaged students are physically, the better their learning outcomes. This requires more than a midday recess or a walk between classes. Allowing students to take walking breaks during lessons and throughout the day, for example, revitalizes students, increases their attention span, and better prepares them to retain information.
Positive Emotions
The happier students are, the more they are willing to learn and think effectively. Affirmations from the teacher are one way to raise student self-esteem. In the past two decades, neuroscience research has proven the traditional classroom isn’t as stimulating for student learning as it could be. Enter brain-based learning, an innovative approach to education based on scientific research. It involves a teaching method that limits lectures and encourages exercise breaks, team learning, and peer teaching.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2. Brain-Based learning is a comprehensive approach
to instruction based on how current research in
neuroscience suggests our brain learns naturally.
o This theory is based on what we currently know about
the actual structure and function of the human brain at
varying stages of development.
3. o This type of education provides a biologically driven
framework for teaching and learning, and helps
explain recurring learning behaviors.
o It is a meta-concept that includes an eclectic mix of
techniques. Currently, these techniques stress allowing
teachers to connect learning to students’ real life
experiences.
4. Brain-Based Learning is also the application of a meaningful
group of principles that represent our understanding of how our
brain works in the context of education.
Brain-Based Learning is simply the engagement of strategies
based on body/mind/brain research..
Brain-Based Learning is not a panacea or magic bullet to solve
all of education’s problems.
5. Brain-based education is best understood in three words:
engagement
strategies
principles
6. Brain-based education is the
"engagement of strategies
based on principles derived
from an understanding of the
brain."
8. For 2,000 years there have been primitive models of
how the brain works. Up until the mid 1900’s the
brain was compared to a city’s switchboard.
Brain theory in the 1970’s spoke of the right and left-
brain. Later the concept of the triune brain ( a term
coined by Paul McClean that refers to the evolution of
the human three part brain) was introduced.
9. During the last two decades, neuroscientists have been
doing research that has implications for improved
teaching practices.
Neuroscience is based on information obtained
through autopsies, experiments, and different types of
scans -- MRIs, EEGs, PET and CAT scans, as well as
the most recent brain research lab studies in
neuroscience.
10. 1. The brain is a parallel processor. It can perform
several activities at once.
2. The brain perceives whole and parts simultaneously.
3. Information is stored in multiple areas of the brain
and is retrieved through multiple memory and neural
pathways.
11. 4. Learning engages the whole body. All learning is
mind-body: movement, foods, attention cycles, and
chemicals modulate learning
5. Humans’ search for meaning is innate.
6. The search for meaning comes through patterning.
12. 7. Emotions are critical to patterning, and drive our
attention, meaning and memory.
8. Meaning is more important than just information.
9. Learning involves focused attention and peripheral
perception.
13. 10. We have two types of memory: spatial and rote.
11. We understand best when facts are embedded in
natural spatial memory.
12. The brain is social. It develops better in concert with
other brains.
14. 13. Complex learning is enhanced by challenge and
inhibited by stress
14. Every brain in uniquely organized.
15. Learning is developmental. (Caine)
15. There are interactive teaching elements that emerge from these
principles.
Orchestrated immersion: Learning environments are
created that immerse students in a learning experience.
Relaxed alertness: An effort is made to eliminate fear while
maintaining a highly challenging environment.
Active processing: The learner consolidates and internalizes
information by actively processing it.
16. 1) Rich, stimulating environments using student created materials and
products are evident on bulletin boards and display areas.
2) Places for group learning like tables and desks grouped together, to
stimulate social skills and cooperative work groups.
3) Link indoor and outdoor spaces so students can move about using
their motor cortex for more brain oxygenation.
17. 4) Safe places for students to be where threat is reduced, particularly in
large urban settings.
5) Variety of places that provide different lighting, and nooks and
crannies.
6) Change displays in the classroom regularly to provide a stimulating
situations for brain development.
18. 7) Have multiple resources available. Provide educational, physical and
a variety of setting within the classroom so that learning activities
can be integrated easily.
8) Flexibility: This common principle of the past is relevant. The
‘teachable moment” must be recognized and capitalized upo
9) Active and passive places: Students need quiet areas for reflection
and retreat from others to use intrapersonal intelligences.
19. 10) Personal space: Students need a home base, a desk, a locker area.
All this allows learners to express their unique identity.
11) The community at large as an optimal learning environment.
12) Enrichment: The brain can grow new connections at any age.
20. Music: Music can lower stress, boost learning when used 3
different ways:
as a carrier - using melody or beat to encode content,
as arousal - to calm down or energize,
as a primer - to prepare specific pathways for learning
content) impacts the immune system, and is an energy source
for the brain.
21. Art: Art is an important part of brain-based education in
that it provides many learners with avenues of expression and
emotional conduits for learning and retaining information.
Diverse forms of assessment: students should
be exposed to multiple assessment methods. (Jensen)
