Mariale Hardiman- The Brain-Targeted Teaching Model by prattbennet

Since working in the Baltimore Public School system for 30 years, Dr. Hardiman has become the Assistant Dean of Urban School Partnerships at the Johns Hopkins University and the co-founder and director of the Neuroeducation Initiative there.
She has also recently published an excellent book, The Brain-Targeted Teaching Model for 21st-Century Schools, that offers invaluable explanations on the kinds of small adjustments to classes, assignments, and curricula that have been proven to boost students' cognitive capabilities. Her book presents 6 "targets," or ways we can help our students do their best thinking and work, with an accessible blend of scientific findings, examples from teachers using the approaches, and common sense that will resonate with every educator.
