Developing a SMART Brain in the Information Age
Come experience some of the newly emerging approaches for maximizing learning and productivity based on the latest in the science of neuroplasticity and brain performance. Brain science in recent years has revealed much about how to best empower and equip students to “neuro-engineer” and “fuel” their own brain to peak performance by how they engage it every day. In this digital age, where students may tackle everything from "information overload" to FOMO (Fear of Missing Out), it has become particularly important to be strategic in the ways we take in information and direct our mental energy. An emphasis will be placed on forward-thinking applications to optimize learning potential as well as tools and tactics to improve focus while eliminating habits that impair efficient brain operations, bringing ways to promote increased brain potential and resilience in our “iGeneration” with some actionable tips and takeaways. Time will also be included for participants to have the opportunity to ask any pertinent questions they may have about their greatest asset, the brain! Presenter: Lori Cook, PhD., CCC-SLP, Center for Brain Health, The University of Texas at Dallas.
