Deadline for "Using Brain Research to Enhance and Energize Instruction" Workshop


   Wednesday, June 3, is the deadline to RSVP for a workshop facilitated by brain researcher Janet Zadina. The workshop is from 9 a.m. to noon on June 12 in Monroe A & B. The workshop, suitable for faculty in all departments, is titled “Using Brain Research to Enhance and Energize Instruction” and will give faculty a foundation in research and theory on language learning in the brain. Participants will engage in activities that illustrate the principles and how they can be applied in the classroom. Zadina practices what she preaches, and the workshop promises to be lively. Sign-in and a light breakfast begin at 8:30 a.m. All faculty, including adjuncts, and staff are invited.
