Upgrade Your Teaching: Understanding by Design Meets Neuroscience

Had to get the book for school. Has a lot of good teaching strategies.

Whether you're a seasoned teacher or new to the profession, this book will upgrade your thinking around student engagement, retention, and motivation. It’s well-organized, engagingly written, and offers immediate takeaways you can use in your classroom. Highly recommend for teachers, curriculum planners, and instructional coaches looking to improve both planning and impact!

This book is fantastic. I am a proficiency-based learning coordinator in Vermont, and just finished reading this. The first chapter alone is worth the price, concisely and simply explaining how the brain learns. The connection between the neuroscience and instructional design throughout the rest of the book is practical and compelling--the more we know about how the brain learns, the more standards-based learning becomes the logical next step in education. A great book to have in your educator library (or for all of your faculty to read!).

This book really helped my teachers to understand the brain in conjunction with learning. Understanding the learner from a neurological standpoint placed light into some areas that seemed evasive.

Love this book! Recommending it to all educators!

Good book for those who works with education.

I am loving the brain-based learning and teaching as illustrated by this book. It has made an impact on how I intend to teach (and learn myself) in the future. Knowing how the brain works and responds to various stimuli will influence how I plan and teach lessons. In my opinion, this book supersedes most others on how to teach.

Muy fácil de comprender, consejos prácticos pero si requieres un buen nivel de comprensión de understanding by design

Excellent resource for students. Decent price.

Excelente libro. Muy bien explicado y muy fácil para poner en práctica
