Sumario:How does the adult brain transform the world of experience into learning and knowing? Facilitating Learning with the Adult Brain in Mind describes how the brain works, and how to help adults learn, develop, and perform more effectively in diverse settings. Using stories, metaphors, and illustrations to illuminate technical ideas, Taylor and Marienau synthesize relevant trends in neuroscience, cognitive science, and philosophy of mind. The authors demonstrate how embodied, analogical approaches to learning can cultivate in adults a greater capacity to deal meaningfully and effectively with the complexities of modern life. Taylor and Marienau also describe their own journey of integrating brain-aware facilitation into their professional practices.
