ASCD: 3:00 Sesson
 
3:06
I'm starting off in "Using Neuroscience to Engage Learners Who Live in Poverty", presented by Dr. Rick DuVall.
3:06
I may try to cross over to "Suspensions are Old School" in a little while.
3:08
This is a serious topic, but the presenter is highly engaging and down-to-earth.
3:09
He just gave his 'forecast' for the session: it's not a syllabus or outline, it's just a prediction based on how he thinks things are going to go. The audience's reaction will influence how the rest of the session goes, so the forecast could change.
3:11
Laugh during the session! Laughter makes our brains release endorphins, which flush toxins out of the body.
3:11
[This is the second presenter who mentioned the importance of laughter from a neuroscience viewpoint.   Why do we discount it as educators?]
3:15
Right now the presenter is still setting up norms for the session.   We're 15 minutes, and I'm ready to get started.
3:16
Asking us to show how we're feeling (1 finger: grumpy, 2: sleepy, etc.).
3:18
How is what we just did brain-friendly?   It's funny, kinesthetic...
3:19
Also noting how we're reacting to the command to talk to each other. We have to feel safe doing this.   So do our students.
