> In This Session
> In this webinar, discover new and effective approaches to learning and teaching in the school library program. This one hour could transform your library into a Think Tank! With strong rationale for brain-based learning coming from successful practice, neuroscience, and standards reform, we’ll explore why and how it works. There will be a close look at what a child’s brain – if it could talk - would say about optimal learning, along with an array of everyday practice to turn a library into a Think Tank.
> 
> Paige Jaeger and Mary Ratzer will show us how real world learning plans can serve as instructional models. Creating a brain-based learning and teaching dynamic in your library can begin with this close and real world view. Exploring both elementary and secondary Think Tank learning plans, in multiple disciplines, a complete package comes together, ready to adapt by an innovative school librarian. A straightforward recipe for brain-based learning and teaching will be the take away big idea. Participants will reflect on how their programs are already Think Tanks, and how strategic change can kick practice up a notch and help learners succeed.
