Three Brains are Better Than One: Integrating Brain, Body and Heart Intelligences for Engaged Learning
Presented by Tim Burns
March 2, 2011
 

Looking for a workshop experience that pulls together recent and relevant findings about the learning brain, while integrating exciting discoveries about the “second (gut) brain” and the intelligence of the heart? If so, this is the workshop for you. This informative, engaging, and enjoyable experience shows why and -- most importantly -- how to put these important findings into practice. Presented to thousands of educators across the U.S., as well as in sixteen other countries around the world, the workshop blends research and practical application within a framework of brain-based childhood development.

Effective instruction requires ways and means to keep students physically and emotionally involved in the learning process. To do so requires both the knowledge and the skills to effortlessly gain and hold student attention, while ensuring that the learning sticks. Such an integrated approach to brain, body and heart intelligences results in threat-free, enjoyable, engaged learning that really does stick.

Tim Burns is an educator, author and renowned national/international presenter/instructor with a keen interest in human development, learning, and creativity -- and an enjoyable and engaging way of teaching about them. His background includes over thirty years of experience as classroom teacher, counselor, First Offender Program facilitator, adolescent and family drug-treatment program director, university instructor, and staff development specialist. Throughout this year,
