We have covered the three domains of learning. They are cognitive, affective and psychomotor. Students learn in different ways. We will continue to study different teaching methods that fit in these three categories.
We also covered the brain and brain-compatible classrooms. We watched Dr. Marian Diamond, Eric Jensen and Dr. Sylwester speak about the brain and how it connects to learning. Then we discussed the characteristics of a brain-compatible classroom. Justin created a mnemonic device - LIFE - to help us remember the characteristics. Check out this link on mnemonics.
LIFE stands for active, meaningful learning; simulating,varied input; accurate, timely feedback; safe, non-threatening environment.
What did you learn Day 1 that you will use in your classroom?
