A Brain Compatible Classroom is where we can create a free Mind Flow State for both
teachers and students.
If students do not achieve a Mind Flow State then they become disengaged and exhibit
adverse learning behaviours with students performing far below their best.
If teachers work in a Non Compatible environment then they become dissatisfied,
discouraged and stressed as many students receive a lifelong sentence of low
performance.
A Brain Compatible Classroom can offer an enviroment that has the following
charastaristics:
- Absence of Threat
- Meaningful Content
- Enriched Environment
- Choices
- Collaboration
- Immediate feedback
- Adequate time [for reflection and integration of new knowledge]
- Mastery at the application level
- Active involvement in the learning
