Book Hero Magic crafted this summary to help describe this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Summary
This book explains how the brain, as a social organism, learns best throughout the lifespan, from early schooling through to late life. Louis Cozolino positions the brain as distinctly social and helps teachers connect neurobiological principles with classroom practices designed to nurture healthy attachment patterns and resilient psyches. It investigates what effective teachers do to stimulate learning, especially with difficult or "unteachable" students, from the perspectives of social neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology. The book aims to maximise learning and brain growth while addressing the social and emotional development of children in twenty-first century classrooms.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

This book explains how the brain, as a social organism, learns best throughout the lifespan, from our early schooling through late life. Positioning the brain as distinctly social, Louis Cozolino helps teachers make connections to neurobiological principles, with the goal of creating classrooms that nurture healthy attachment patterns and resilient psyches.

Cozolino investigates what good teachers do to stimulate minds and brains to learn, especially when they succeed with difficult or "unteachable" students. He explores classroom teaching from the perspectives of social neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology, showing how we can use the findings from these fields to maximise learning and stimulate the brain to grow. The Social Neuroscience of Education will have relevance to anyone concerned with twenty-first century learners and the social and emotional development of children.
