Thanks to unprecedented advances in brain science, we know more about the brain today than ever before. But what does that science tell us about how we learn? How can we capture the power of neuroscience research so that it benefits our students?

Judy Willis and Malana Willis answer these questions with clarity and insight, translating recent research on the brain and learning into understandable concepts and practical strategies to use across the curriculum, spanning all grade levels from preK through postsecondary.

In this revised and expanded edition of the bestselling Research-Based Strategies to Ignite Student Learning, readers will learn how to

* Arouse students' curiosity and interest in pursuing wide-ranging topics, including those they might typically find boring.
* Counteract the negative effects of stress, boredom, and frustration on memory.
* Defuse undesirable behaviors that are the result of the brain's natural fight/flight/freeze response.
* Incorporate the motivating characteristics of video gaming--including clear goals, achievable challenges, predictions, and continual feedback--into classroom learning.
* Break through stereotypes that deter students from reaching their full potential.
* Use the power of neuroscience research to develop students' executive function skills, such as focus, prioritization, organization, collaboration, critical analysis, and innovation.

Willis and Willis describe how the brain converts a vast amount of sensory input into long-term memory and durable understanding, and how educators can use this knowledge to guide students to more successful experiences in school and beyond.

Will buy again !
I recently got this bamboo cutting board set and I’m really happy with it. The set comes with multiple sizes, which makes it super convenient for different tasks—smaller boards for quick prep and larger ones for bigger meals. The built-in grooves are a great touch, helping catch juices and keep the counter clean. The boards feel sturdy and well-made, but still lightweight enough to handle easily. I also like the natural bamboo look—it adds a nice, clean aesthetic to the kitchen. The included stand is a bonus, keeping everything organized and easy to access. Overall, this is a practical and stylish set that works great for everyday use. Definitely a solid value and something I’d recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen essentials.

Beautiful Acacia Boards That Actually Feel Premium and Thoughtfully Made
I’ve gone through a lot of wooden cutting boards over the years, and these immediately stood out as feeling much higher quality than most sets in this price range. The acacia wood has a really rich, attractive grain pattern and the boards arrived smooth, solid, and well finished with no rough spots, cracks, or cheap “composite wood” feel. What initially caught my attention was the fact that these are marketed as non-toxic and free from mineral oil. Most people don’t think much about what wooden kitchen products are treated with, but I appreciated that these use a natural blend instead of petroleum-based mineral oil. The boards had a very clean, natural wood smell out of the box instead of that chemical/oily smell some cheaper boards have. The three-size setup is honestly perfect for daily kitchen use. I find myself constantly rotating between them: the large board for meal prep and meats the medium board for vegetables the small one for fruit, cheese, garlic, herbs, etc. The engraved food icons are also a surprisingly nice touch because they help keep things organized and reduce cross contamination without looking tacky. A few other things I really liked: They’re lightweight enough to move around easily but still feel sturdy - The wood is gentle on knives - The groove catches juices well - They look nice enough to double as serving boards - Packaging was clean and plastic-free/minimal Like any real wood cutting board, you absolutely need to: - hand wash only - dry them after use - occasionally recondition the wood If you expect dishwasher-safe convenience, these probably aren’t for you. But if you want attractive, natural wood boards that feel healthier and more intentional than cheap plastic boards, these are excellent. Overall, these feel like a genuinely thoughtful kitchen product rather than generic mass-produced boards with a trendy “eco” label slapped on them. Very happy with them so far.
