Designing learning around student interest and making learning contextual. Making use of peripheral learning. Structuring learning around real problems and allowing learning settings outside the classroom and school building. All students are learning.

What 'Brain-Based Learning' Suggests The way the brain works has a significant impact on the kinds of learning activities that are most effective.

Teachers need to orchestrate the immersion of the learner in complex, interactive experiences that are both rich and real. A good example is the use of immersion in the teaching of a second language. We need to take advantage of the brain's ability to process in parallel.
