Pioneering Neuroscientist Janet Zadina Reflects on Her Journey of ”Bridging Neuroscience and Education”

<p>For today’s EPISODE #280, we will be speaking with a pioneer in the field of educational neuroscience. The book she wrote, <em>Multiple Pathways to the Student Brain</em> covers the years of work she spent speaking to teachers all over the world about how the brain learns and what this means in the classroom. At the time she graduated, she was the ONLY person, so far as she knew, using the term educational neuroscience.</p> <p>Watch this interview on YouTube here <a href='https://youtu.be/mU6eGZi6Rng'>https://youtu.be/mU6eGZi6Rng</a> </p> <p></p> <p>On today’s Episode #280 we will cover</p> <p>✔ How Andrea was referred to study Janet Zadina's work back in 2014.</p> <p>✔ The Impact of Dr. Zadina's Significant Contribution in Academics and Education Over the Years. </p> <p>✔Janet Zadina's Arduous Pathway Bridging Education and the Brain since the 1980s.</p> <p>✔ How Dr. Zadina Saw How Neuroimaging Could Help Change the Way We Teach Our Future Generations. </p> <p>✔ Janet Zadina's Thoughts on Where Educational Neuroscience Began, and Where It's Going.</p> <p>✔ Tools and Resources for Educators on her website <a href='http://www.brainresearch.us'>www.brainresearch.us</a> </p> <p>Welcome back to The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we cover the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (for schools) and emotional intelligence training (in the workplace) with tools, ideas and strategies that we can all use for immediate results, with our brain in mind.  I’m Andrea Samadi, an author, and educator with a passion for learning specifically on the topics of health, wellbeing and productivity, and launched this podcast to share how important an understanding of our brain is to our everyday life and results, using the most current brain research. If there’s a tool, strategy or resource that I find, that could be helpful to improve productivity and results, whether we are a teacher in the classroom, a coach or in the modern workplace, I will share it here.</p> <p
