Applied Educational Neuroscience is a framework (not a program) that addresses the neurobiology of stress, regulation, engagement and connection. This framework integrates applied educational neuroscience research and strategies to ensure educators are sitting beside their students in relationship, regulation and cognition. All of these build into ASDB how students perceive their own competence and their ability to impact it. Connection + Purpose = Wellbeing. We must ultimately TEACH students about their neuroanatomy and turn the ideas of learning and self-discipline into a science that students can understand and apply. Presentation Outcomes Understand brain development and the neuro-diversity of all students as it relates to the classroom culture, student and educator behaviors and learning. Understand stress response systems with strategies that dampen the stress response and prime the brain for cognition. Understand the brain states and the emotional contagion that exists in a living system. Learn mindfulness strategies that regulate the brain and negative emotions. Gain a scope and sequence of brain aligned strategies that regulate behaviors, opening up cortical function while building a safe and trusting environment for both student and educator. |
