The ability to understand ideas and information is one of the most important skills students will develop -- both in school and at home -- but for some, it is a real challenge. In this DVD collection, you will explore the brain functions involved in understanding, common problems students face, and practical strategies teachers and parents can use to help students succeed. This set includes an overview program, introductory programs for teachers and parents, and specific programs on how memory, language, attention and higher order cognition contribute to understanding. You will hear from parents, teachers, students, and Dr. Mel Levine as they discuss challenges of understanding and strategies that work. Includes 11 programs, plus downloadable guidebooks: Understanding, Higher Order Cognition, Memory, Language, Attention, Library Overview, Introduction for Parents, Introduction for Teachers, General Strategies for Parents, General Strategies for Teachers, and A Student Profile.
