COURSE OBJECTIVES
Participants receive extensive training in Educational Kinesiology, the science of body movement as it relates to brain function. The specific techniques in this program bring about rapid gains in concentration, memory, physical coordination, reading, writing, and listening.
Instructional methods: Lecture; discussion; live demonstration; reading of text in Brain Gym 101, Balance for Daily Life, Brain Gym Teacher’s Edition, both by Dennison and Dennison, and an archive of Brain Gym periodicals; practicals (in which participants practice in small groups with other participants); and creating a written plan for implementation of this new information.
Evaluation procedures: Observation of performance of learners during practicals, followed by evaluative feedback and processing; question-&-answer sessions; and each participant’s presentations to the group of his/her written and illustrated summaries of information and plans for implementation.
