Welcome to the Synap2it Toolbox! We are here to provide families like you with tools to give your students an edge on their learning, because when students connect to learning, everyone wins.  Today we are talking about Teaching the Ability to Learn.

Perception is attentiveness. It is the basis of education. While 80 percent of what we perceive is visual information, our visual sense must be neurologically integrated with our auditory senses and the other three of our ‘far senses,’ those which respond to outside stimuli.

Simultaneously, the brain, the spinal cord and the nerves- the whole Central Nervous System- must integrate the dozen or so ‘near senses’ that we neither direct nor feel, such as our senses of posture, balance, and physical synchronization.

Each of our students’ multiple senses- far and near senses- is a receive tuned to a distinct feature of the 360-degree world around them. To cognize the classroom, students must present adequately developed perceptual skills to the task. 

Otherwise, cognition may be impeded by eyestrain, shallow depth perception, phonemic confusion, or poor visual or auditory concentration; and/or clumsiness, hesitation, withdrawal, messiness, disorganization, or perfunctory engagement.

Perceptual dysfunctions are often silent or invisible impairments. 

Intervention should prevent students from:

• Failing to reach their potential
• Diluting instructional efforts
• Diminishing overall campus performance
• Distracting the classroom
• Damaging the learning and teaching environment for everybody.

Thank you so much for joining us today. We are here to provide you with tools to give your students an edge on learning. You are not alone in searching for additional resources to provide for your students. We have free downloads for you on our website, that way you can take the information you heard today and use it for future reference.

Learners of any age can benefit from our brain based learning approach that gets to the root of learning challenges. Our ability to strengthen and develop learning abilities is what makes us stand out. Using our comprehensive brain based learning programs we help students recognize their full potential for learning. Everybody has strengths. We use the strengths to build the weaknesses.
