Episode Details

We nerd out in this episode as we explore the latest developments in neuroscience and what they say about how our students’ social worlds influence and grow their ways of knowing about the world and themselves. We’re joined by the brilliant Dr. Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, Professor of Education, Psychology, and Neuroscience at the University of Southern California. What does her research teach us about what is happening in the minds of kids and teachers when powerful learning is taking place? How can science inform our discussions about what school should look like when we return this fall? We also review recent headlines in education, including calls to remove police from schools and a new warning about screen time and its impact on children’s eyesight. ***Please consider subscribing to our YouTube channel! https://youtube.com/AllOfTheAbove *** DO-NOW HEADLINES: - Pressure mounts to remove police from schools (3:30) - New study says increases in screen time may be bad for kids’ eyes (8:23) SEMINAR: - The neuroscience of learning with Dr. Immordino-Yang (15:11) CLASS DISMISSED: - Students step up to march for Black lives (1:08:10) Get MORE All of the Above: Website - https://aotashow.com/ Podcast via Apple Podcast - https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/all-of-the-above-podcast/id1339198232 Podcast via Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4NO3FENVr96JJTU4ZjdnCm Podcast via Soundcloud - https://soundcloud.com/aotashow Podcast via Stitcher - https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/all-of-the-above-show/all-of-the-above?refid=stpr Facebook Page - https://www.facebook.com/AOTAshow/ Theme Music by its tajonthabeat: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCChvx9rSyOTEO2AnYynqWFw
