[Ohiogift] Brain Research: Cautions and Caveats

[Bridget Wells]

I just finished a great book about this very aspect of brain based
education, it touted caution against "the brain in the bucket" approach to
education, and gave reverence to a conjoined approach to furthering
research and education. It is by Sousa, et al, entitled: "Mind, brain, and
education; Neuroscience implications for the classroom."  I especially
enjoyed the last two chapters.  Bridget Wells
