Boosting Brainpower- Be GLAD Educator Webinar Series

A special thank you to Certified Agency Trainer, Laura Smith for sharing empowering information about the brain. Laura presented information by using a Narrative Input Chart, and teaches us how the brain works. Linking brain research to effective teaching strategies is the perfect combination!

Congratulations to Be GLAD Core Site, River Woods Elementary School! We celebrate River Woods ES for their outstanding contributions to their students and dedication in implementing the Be GLAD Strategies.

Cultivate Authentic Engagement with Brainpower and Cultural Awareness

Your kids may be doing the work, but are they authentically engaged? How can you intentionally support them as they take charge of their learning?

An effective way for our students to become insightful is by teaching them about the brain. When they gain self-awareness and understand how the brain works, they can take charge of their learning and embrace productive struggle.

In Part 1, we focus on the Basics to Brainpower. In Part 2, we enrich perspective by explaining how Deep Culture drives information processing. The relationship between the two cultivates authentic engagement and transformational learning communities.
