Studying With Brain in Mind
Our Studying With The Brain In Mind workshops teach students how to get the most out of their brain during revision time. By better understanding how the brain works, your students will be able to use it better. We do this by making things very simple and understandable, whilst using lots of practicals, experiments and videos. The workshop looks at 5 key areas: Multi-tasking, Memory, Sleep, Organisation and Managing Stress.
