6. • Can this "Google, Yahoo" part of the learner’s brain begin to differentiate
what resources they consume online are valid or not?
• Can this "Google, Yahoo“ part of the learner’s brain create new meaning
from the authentic sources they read?
• Will this "Google, Yahoo" part of the learner’s brain lead to great
innovations and discoveries that help humans understand their place
in the world and make life easier for all our world's citizens?
• Can the learner transfer their learning beyond their community?

9. Principles of
Multiple Intelligences (MI)
o All people are born with eight intelligences:
o Individuals should be encouraged to use their preferred
intelligences in learning.
o Instructional activities should appeal to different forms of
intelligence.
o Assessment of learning should measure multiple forms of
intelligence.

13. Principles of
Brain-Based Learning (BBL)
 Brain is a parallel processor for the whole body learning.
 It processes learning in parts and whole.
 It searches for meaning & patterning.
 Brain focuses on the both central attention & peripheral
perception.
 It controls and manifests emotions critical for embedded
learning.
 It has several types of memory stored as conscious &
unconscious processes.
 Every brain is unique and has its own challenges & threats.

14. BBL in the Classroom
Opportunities for group learning
Regular environmental changes
A multi-sensory environment
Opportunities for self-
expression and making personal
connections to content
Community-based learning
