Reinventing Schools through Brain-Based Learning.
Caine, Renate Nummela; Caine, Geoffrey
Educational Leadership, v52 n7 p43-47 Apr 1995
In "Making Connections--Teaching and the Human Brain," the authors outline a new learning theory based on current research in the neurosciences. This theory has been applied to several schools, including a Rio Linda, CA, elementary school serving economically disadvantaged children. Schools as apprentice communities allow children to test many "real-world" relationships and ideas. (MLH)
