Day 2: "Teaching in the Brain New World" by Henry Toi

I. Design of Teaching Periods
Discoveries in the field of learning and recall can help teachers in designing lesson plans that are brain-based. Follow-up revision can also be enhanced with the understanding of how the brain retains information over a period of time.

II. Making Thinking Visible
One of the most powerful ways to teach is to transfer thinking processes to students. The problem lies with the nature of thinking processes, which is "invisible" most of the time. Hence, students may see the demonstration of the desired outcome, but are unable to replicate the processes. Mind Maps can be used to make the instructor's thinking processes visible to the students and help scaffold student's thinking.

III. Creative Thinking
Creative thinking process requires skillful controlled divergent and convergent thinking. The templates developed in this session can be applied to a wide range of subjects and topics.

IV. Critical Thinking
Critical thinking can be enhanced with the appropriate use of Mind Maps. Some of the skill demonstrated in this hand-on session includes:
Judging
Part-whole thinking
Ordering
Analysis
Compare and contrast
Systems thinking

V. Using images to power up student's Understanding and Recall
Research has shown that the brain's ability to recall images far outperforms its ability to recall words. In this hands-on session, you will be engaged in creating word-pictures to help your students learning while having fun.

VI. Difference between Mind Maps and Concept Maps
There are significant differences in the application of concept maps and Mind Maps. Knowing the difference will help teachers be more discerning in applying the techniques for the appropriate outcome.
Who Should Attend?
  • School administrators, teachers, professors, mentors, and educators looking for innovative ways of imparting lessons and knowledge to students and who are interested revamping their lesson plans.
  • HR professions and trainers who are responsible for implementing learning and training sessions to their respective organizations
  • Managers, leaders, supervisors, directors, executives, and teams who are looking for ways to enhance their organization's intellectual capital.
  • High school and university students who are interested in new concepts on learning and who want to excel in school.
