Don't Miss Symposium with John Medina, March 2 at 9 am

Burke's Parent Education 2009-2010

Great Girls Deserve Great Schools Symposium

Brain Rules - Dr. John Medina -  March 2, 2010 at 9:00 a.m. at Burke's
Dr. John Medina, a developmental molecular biologist, will share his insight into how the brain sciences might influence the way we teach our children and the way we work on March 2nd at Burke's 15th annual Great Girls Deserve Great Schools Symposium.

Brain scientists have uncovered details every parent and teacher should know. How do we learn? What exactly do sleep and stress do to our brains? Why is multi-tasking a myth? Why is it so easy to forget and so important to repeat new knowledge? Medina describes twelve brain rules – what scientists know for sure about how our brains work – and then offers transformative ideas for our daily lives.
