The New Learning Revolution 3rd Edition

A new and updated edition of the hugely successful Learning Revolution. >

The UK edition of Jeanette Vos and Gordon Dryden's book, first published in 1993. They have collected even more exclusive data and research from around the world for this edition.

All of us, together, are going through the most profound revolution in human history. Its impact is personal, national, global - and, in many ways, unlimited. This new networked age makes it urgent to rethink entirely what we mean by education, learning, teaching, and schooling. Now the world is your classroom and learning is lifelong. There are seven keys to unlock the new revolution in that it's personal, interactive, global, instant, mainly free, easily shared, and co-operative. Dutch born Canadian educationalist Jeannette Voss is a well known international keynote conference presenter with a "whole person approach" to learning. Gordon Dryden is well known in New Zealand from his time as a journalist and radio host and lately for his interest in the use of technology for the benefit of education. This book is a sequel to Voss and Dryden's 2003 bestseller THE LEARNING REVOLUTION.

Anne Green Gilbert’s Brain-Compatible Dance Education, Second Edition, strikes the perfect balance between hard science and practicality, making it an ideal resource for dance educators working with dancers of all ages and abilities. Gilbert presents the latest brain research and its implications for dance educators and dancers. She makes the research findings accessible and easy to digest, always connecting the science to the teaching and learning that takes place in classrooms and studios.

In the face of unprecedented disruption from the COVID-19 pandemic and the rapid acceleration of digital technologies, it is necessary to rethink the competences required by teachers for meeting new and flexible learning demands. Teacher training is an area constantly evolving along with emerging social challenges that are transforming educational institutions and agents. This book provides teachers with skills, innovative solutions, cutting-edge studies, and methodologies to meet education and training system demands. In our changing world, preparing teachers worldwide for the challenges and shifts of this era involves the opportunity to exchange theories, practices, and experiences such as those contained in this book.

Rob Stokoe, director at Jumeirah English Speaking Schools in Dubai, explores the ever-changing demands and requirements for leadership in education and leaders of learning: 'We now know so much more about how we learn, how our brains function and grow. Our collaborative networks are growing exponentially; educators are now globally connected. Furthermore there is a growing awareness and a deeper understanding emerging, a convergence of ideas, new and old, which are informing the educational debate. 'We have a job to do, to make informed, considered decisions, to be flexible and pro active, take risks in order to structure and define ways of learning and inquiry-based education which will best meet the needs of students who are the greatest resource humanity has. Our goal is simply to determine a meaningful and purposeful future for each and every student globally.'

It is easily can be proved that the human brain equipped sense organs can work as an universal measuring tool, and measure with sufficient accuracy after some training not only a distance, mass or volume, but and parameters of important personal functions. Unfortunately, this instrument does not have an indicator device (panel) and results of measurements usually hidden in the depth of subconscious part of mind. To extract these results of measurements, at first, is needed to find an access code for this information, secondly, to deduce this information in a convenient for perception form, and after that to decipher it. Based on this approach a new method of direct measurement of intellectual parameters was used for appraisal such characteristics of intellect and mind as creativity, intuition, willpower, stress level, vital energy index, etc. Verification of the accuracy of measurement of some bio-physical parameters measured by the same method (for example number of thrombocytes in the blood) is carried out by comparison with laboratory blood tests. Research and physical measurements of a person's intellectual abilities have shown that they can change significantly from the influence of many external factors and, first of all, of light, electromagnetic and sound perceptions of the senses, both for the better and for the worse. This allows significantly increasing the capabilities and expanding the range of use of any entrainment technology. Using algorithms of multi-parameter optimization, the method allows increasing the level of intellect and its components in several times practically for everyone. Measurement of willpower and stress opens the prospect for many people to maintain their health and activity at the proper level throughout life. In the book are collected also some rules and methods allowing to support intellectual abilities of the mind on an optimum level by means of mindset management, control of the subconscious mind, cognitive control, and control emotions. Method of measurement of intellectual abilities and compatibility of team members can be used in process of the hiring, searching a bride, etc.
