One of our most popular webinars to date was 2011's New Findings in Brain Research for Educators session. And the pace of investigation into matters of the brain hasn't slowed down in the least. Once again, each week seems to bring more news on how the brain functions and how the research is transforming education from trial-and-error and guesswork to evidence-based approaches.
The focus of this year's New Findings webinar will be what we are learning about the adolescent brain and some of the latest thinking on creativity and how to help students (and ourselves) become more creative. Time permitting, we hope to touch on new findings on attention and multi-tasking,
This webinar qualifies for 1 Continuing Professional Development Unit (CPDU, Illinois).
