Parents want to work with their children's teachers to help them succeed in school. What Brain Research Says about Student Learning provides parents and teachers the most recent findings in brain research and learning theory in a very approachable way. The reader will see how the child's brain develops, learns, remembers, and creates new meaning and understanding. User-friendly discussions of learning and teaching theories will show strategies both parents and teachers can use to capitalize on this new understanding about the child's developing brain. Topics include: learning environment, developmental stages, lesson planning, teaching strategies, assignments, and assessments. The book concludes with a variety of actual samples from these topic areas.

Dr. Rettig draws upon 40 years of experience in higher education and K-12. He has served as a public-school teacher and principal, a professor of educational leadership, and a university vice president and dean. His conceptual research agenda reaches from leadership, decision making, and how people learn with implications for our classrooms.
With an emphasis on the Latin root of curriculum, "to run", professor Dr. Bailey's research focuses on the procession of our understanding of cognition, and ideological formations along the history of curriculum and instructional practices.
