The brain is designed to perceive and generate patterns. Emotions and cognition cannot be separated. Emotions can be crucial to the storage and recall of information. Help build a classroom environment that promotes positive attitudes among students and teachers and about their work. Encourage students to be aware of their feelings and how the emotional climate affects their learning.
Every brain simultaneously perceives and creates parts and wholes.
Try to avoid isolating information from its context. This isolation makes learning more difficult. Design activities that require full brain interaction and communication. Learning involves both focused attention and peripheral perception. Be aware that the teacher's enthusiasm, modeling, and coaching present important signals about the value of what is being learned.
