Neuro-Education is the study of how children learn best, acquire new information, and use knowledge to advance their own thinking. Drawing from the fields of neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and language, this new academic discipline uses brain-based scientific findings to develop a novel approach to working with students who have struggled in traditional school settings. This book is designed to help educators make a paradigm shift in their practice by shifting their focus from teacher-directed pedagogy to a framework that considers learning from the perspective of the child. How does the brain actually process sensory input? Why do children retain some knowledge but quickly forget other pieces of information? Given that approximately 95% of children think by making visual pictures in their minds, how can educators inspire students to draw upon these strengths to promote higher-order cognition and empathy for others? These questions and more are explored in this book by practitioners of Neuro-Education, who work with a diverse range of student populations including English language learners, individuals with special needs, children who are deaf/hard of hearing, and youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). In order for Neuro-Education to be a legitimate field, it must be anchored by scientific research that showcases its efficacy. This research has culminated in the creation of the Neuro-Semantic Language Learning Theory (NsLLT), proposed by Dr. Ellyn Arwood, which is the primary lens of translation from research to educational practice used in this book. This anthology documents how eleven contributing authors have used the principles of the NsLLT to transform their classrooms into laboratories of learning. This publication is the first volume in The Neuro-Education Academic Series (Neuro-Education Press), which is designed to provide evidence of the gains that are possible by incorporating the NsLLT into brain-based instruction. Educators, parents, and anyone who works with struggling students can use the methods presented here to revolutionize their approach to facilitating learning in these vulnerable populations.
