Brain Based Learning

Principles of

Multiple Intelligences (MI)

o All people are born with eight intelligences:

o Individuals should be encouraged to use their preferred intelligences in learning.

o Instructional activities should appeal to different forms of

intelligence.

o Assessment of learning should measure multiple forms of

intelligence.

Principles of

Brain-Based Learning (BBL)

Brain is a parallel processor for the whole body learning.

It processes learning in parts and whole.

It searches for meaning & patterning.

Brain focuses on the both central attention & peripheral

perception.

It controls and manifests emotions critical for embedded

learning.

It has several types of memory stored as conscious &

unconscious processes.

Every brain is unique and has its own challenges & threats.

BBL in the Classroom

Opportunities for group learning

Regular environmental changes

A multi-sensory environment

Opportunities for self- expression and making personal connections to content
