Live Event Webinar

If you think brain science is not part of your teaching job description, think again. Teachers deal with the neurochemistry behind student learning processes whether they want to or not, and today’s higher education institutions have the unique challenge of serving students whose learning styles have evolved in a multitasking culture.

In this seminar Dr. Bloom and Dr. Petrocco-Napuli will cover how to:

  • Apply educational best practices associated with a learner-centred environment and neurological constructs
  • Use course management and teaching strategies based on brain function that will enhance the learner-centred classroom
  • Adapt presentation styles based on the effects of multitasking on students
  • Optimize teaching strategies through knowledge of the key areas of the brain involved in learning
  • Identify the basic neurology of the brain’s reward centers and create the best parameters for implementing reward systems

Facilitators:

Dr. Lisa Bloom, Fellow of the International Academy of Chiropractic Neurology
Dr. Kristina L. Petrocco-Napuli, holds a bachelor of science degree in physiological sciences from the University of Arizona. She is a graduate of the New York Chiropractic College
