Workshop: The Magical Teenage Brain
If you want to help teenagers
in today's world, then you need to begin with their
brain.
Today's high schools are full of teenagers struggling with
learning challenges, fragile brain issues, boredom or
stress. How can teachers and parents unlock and engage the
adolescent "digital" brain?. The teenage brain is
undergoing huge changes, a work in progress.
Discover:
- Why the adolescent brain is in biological turmoil
- Why teens need to leave every class with experiences, not notes
- How dopamine drives their risk taking behaviour
- What teenagers crave most
- Strategies to effectively reach and teach adolescents, leading them to academic success and a life long learning potential
Teenagers have a great opportunity to influence the development of their own brains.
Great brains are made.
