In order to create a better learning brain, students must be organized, adaptive, passionate, and secure about learning. Research and follow-up studies of these traits with theoretical knowledge, may suggest why multiple intelligence, child development theory, learning styles, and cognitive development should be included in every teacher’s playbook. Moreover, one very real challenge with this age group is how to preserve and protect elements of the magical child (fantasy and imagination), while expecting students to successfully transition to school learning, regardless of their ability or interest level.Walk into any school and observe the writing or artwork on the school’s walls and you will see an incredible mixture of abilities and imagination. This mixture could be a barometer of your child’s learning abilities and actual school success.

As a professional in the field of psychiatry, I am very pleased to see that an intelligent book on the subject of nurturing learning brains is available to both parents and teachers. The book, Brain Smart – a Better Learning Brain by Dr. David Sortino is a collection of his blog articles on the subject of how to allow one’s child, whether a student or family member, to develop a successful learning brain. Most importantly, each article is well supported by research, field studies, and associates’ publications. Most conveniently, the book’s articles are arranged into age appropriate sections so that if one has a young teen, he may simply turn to the section dealing with that age group and read relevant information. I highly recommend this book, whether one is a professional in the field of psychology, a teacher, or a parent. His writing is based on personal experience in his experiences as a professional in the fields of educational psychology, special education, and neurofeedback work. Finally, we have a practical, fascinating guide to dealing with current issues in child-rearing and education, especially in regard to creating a successful learning brain for the child.
