Summer Institute – July 18-21, 2010

Every educator has the ability to impact the lives of their students. The Center for Effective Learning has synthesized the work of many great leaders in the fields of brain research and neuroscience and offers the original solutions in brain-compatible education! We know how to create the most effective educational environments and optimize teaching and learning to increase human capacity.
