In How We Learn, Stanislas Dehaene decodes the brain's biological mechanisms, delving into the neuronal, synaptic, and molecular processes taking place.

You want to study perfectly and not sit at the same time constantly at textbooks, forgetting all the rest? Currently, the concept of learning strategies includes thoughts, actions, beliefs, and emotions that facilitate the acquisition, understanding, and then - the application and transfer of new knowledge and skills in various contexts of activity. Training strategies help create a framework for further information that allows to store it in memory in a form that facilitates integration with the knowledge that is meaningfully associated with it.

Dyslexia has been misunderstood by many and hardly praised by any. The same is even more true for dyscalculia, which is another thing that leaves so many kids and adults frustrated. Having a hard time reading is definitely a part of being dyslexic, and I won't beat around the bush: It's not a good thing. However, what is often is perceived as a mere handicap by common ignoramuses is actually a deviant way of thinking - something that can trigger the involved individual to have hidden talents others may have underestimated.

Math has certainly gotten a bad reputation for being a subject that involves endless calculations and problems that will never be used in the real world, especially now that we all walk around with calculators in our pockets! But the fact is that math is required in multiple areas of an adult’s life, from preparing recipes to managing finances, and that’s without a career in STEM.

Publisher's summary
“Gentry and Ouellette are cannonballing into the reading research pool, they’re making waves, and these waves are moving the field of reading forward.” - From the foreward by Mark Weakland, Super Spellers
The past two decades have brought giant leaps in our understanding of how the brain works. But these discoveries—and all their exciting implications—have yet to make their way into most classrooms.
With the concise and readable Brain Words: How the Science of Reading Informs Teaching you will learn how children’s brains develop as they become readers and discover ways you can take concrete steps to promote this critical developmental passage.
Introducing their original, research-based framework of “brain words”—dictionaries in the brain where students store and automatically access sounds, spellings, and meanings—the authors offer a wealth of information that will transform your thinking and practice:
- Up-to-date knowledge about reading and neurological circuitry, including evidence that spelling is at the core of the reading brain
- Tools to recognize what works, what doesn’t, and why
- Practical classroom activities for daily teaching and student assessment
- Insights about what brain research tells us about whole language and phonics-first movements
- Deepened understanding of dyslexia through the enhanced lens of brain science
With the insights and strategies of Brain ords, you can meet your students where they are and ensure that more of them read well, think well, and write well.
Masterfully narrated by Scott R. Pollak.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

In fact, it's the integral basis of how we speak and write. As such, a refined awareness of grammar opens a world of possibilities for both your pleasure in the English language and your skill in using it, in both speech and the written word.

The model, also known as The Hochman Method, has demonstrated, over and over, that it can turn weak writers into strong communicators by focusing on specific techniques that match their needs and by providing them with targeted feedback.
