Brain-Compatible Practices for the Classroom : Special Education

As educators of students with disabilities seek to implement effective instructional practices in their classroom, they are confronted by the overwhelming amount of research on the human brain. How do they identify those instructional practices that will best align with the findings of those studies while simultaneously addressing the areas of disability presented in their classrooms? Students with special needs particularly benefit because of the unique challenges they present to classroom teachers. Dr. Pat Wolfe, author and world renowned expert on brain-compatible learning interprets current brain research and assists special educators in building a foundation for their instructional practice.
