Hello everyone! Today, we are learning how to learn with Barbara Oakley PhD, and giving away some FREE BOOKS!

Barbara Oakley is an amazing advocate for learners of all ages, and has put together an amazing piece of work along side her partner on the project, Terrence Sejnowski, PhD. This book is all about understanding the brain and how it processes and remembers information, and putting it in a way that not only we can understand, but so can our students!

A few of the points we hit on in this episode are:

  • The importance of processing time
  • Why ADHD exists, and why it can be a benefit to a child
  • Science behind how we learn and why certain strategies JUST WORK!

…AMONG OTHERS!

I love Learning How to Read, I loved this conversation with Barbara, and I can’t wait for you guys to dive into this amazing detailed and insightful part 2.
