  1. The Brain • 1 Trillion Cells • 100 Billion Neurons • 1000 messages per second

  2. Left Side Analytical Verbal Sequential Temporal Right Side Holistic Pictorial Simultaneous Spatial The Two Sides of the Brain

  3. Verbal-Linguistic Able to communicate through language teach someone else rewrite notes Logical-Mathematical Ability to understand logical reasoning write outlines develop charts and graphs Bodily-Kinesthetic Uses the physical body to take in knowledge act out material move while learning Visual-Spatial Ability to understand spatial relationship and create images use color in notes develop graphics of new materials Multiple Intelligences Theory

  4. Interpersonal Relates well to others; recognizes emotions study in groups use flashcards with a partner Intrapersonal Exhibits strong self-awareness study in quiet settings Musical Comprehends meaning through sound put ideas to music take musical breaks Naturalistic Sensitive to the features of the environment take breaks in nature Multiple Intelligences Theory

  7. Other Learning Strategies • Peak and Valley Learning Times • What time of day/week do you have the most energy? • When can you concentrate best? • Bottom-up vs. Top-down Learners • Bottom-up stringers  prefers to master specific details before moving to general concepts • Top-down groupers  prefers to gain overall perspective before filling in the details
