About this audiobook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The problem is not just with Katina, but with many of the students in the class. They seem to have an I can’t mentality in one or more subjects, and you worry that when it comes to state standardized tests, they will bring down the school’s average. #2 When students are actively focusing on their learning, they are beginning the process of making connections between neurons. These connections start forming whether students are sitting in front of you in class, reading a book at home, or trying out their first lay-up in basketball. #3 The brain’s information storage capacity is around a quadrillion bytes. This means that far more information can be stored in the brain than there are grains of sand on all the beaches and deserts of the world. The brain’s information storage and retrieval challenge is getting information into or out of memory. #4 The types of neural connections that form in long-term memory are formed in working memory. These connections are difficult to make, and they need to be made in many places throughout the brain.
