7 Keys to Learning—Dinner Meeting
4:30—7:30pm

This dinner meeting will cover;
Barbara presents 7 keys to learning with lots of practical suggestions to assist students at all levels, including those with specific learning challenges.
So what are these keys?  They are the keys to the way the brain processes information.  They are not teaching tricks or training programmes; they are keys on which we should base all our teaching to ensure that the student’s brain is able to receive, retain and retrieve information in order to make sense of their learning.
