Setting the Stage promotes a "Learner's Brain Model" using brain
research to understand the nature to the learner so teachers can
develop lessons based on the nature of the learner. There is also a
focus on student self-regulation. The first chapter is devoted to
the nature of the learner so teachers and administrators can begin
a reflection process of determining what they do and how the
learner learns to see if there is a match between what is taught
and how it will be processed. Too often low student achievement and
school turnaround is focused on "fixing" teachers and not on
understanding the learner enabling teachers to adapt their
strategies more effectively. Strategies which address student
learning lead to more effective lessons. Following the nature of
the learner, subsequent chapters discuss planning lessons that make
sense and have meaning so the information gets stored in long term
memory. Once information is in long-term memory, it is retrievable
for use. Strategies are provided throughout the book supported by
brain research to help teachers plan lessons.
