The book was written to help solve the problem teachers and school leaders have in knowing how to bring the growing body of educational neuroscience research into the design of their schools, classrooms, and work with each individual student.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The seminar will be targeted at teachers and lecturers from primary, secondary and tertiary educational institutions, and will focus on how educators are brain changers. It will explore how an understanding of the brain \u2013 the organ of learning \u2013 would be critical to a teacher\u2019s readiness to work with students.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Lieb Liebenberg, ITSI\u2019s CEO, commented, \u201cTechnology, and specifically access to information \u2013 therefore connectivity \u2013 is vitally important in the understanding of today\u2019s learner\u2019s \u2013 whether at a primary, secondary or tertiary school level. The role it plays as a tool to be effectively used is pivotal to the success of the 21st century classroom.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please contact Jolandi Marais on jolandi.marais@it.si.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za.<\/p>\n<p><small><strong>Source:<\/strong> <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/itsi-to-host-first-seminar-in-africa-on-mind-brain-education-and-technology-internationally-acclaimed-authors-and-facilitators-to-conduct-hands-on-workshop-with-teachers-and-lecturers\/\">MyPR<\/a><\/small><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/submit\">Submit your own Press Release<\/a> or get free content for your publication.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Video &#8211; How to post your Press Release on MyPR:<\/strong><br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9ovzdChGkuU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><small>My Press Release (MyPR) provides free South African targeted content and press releases for on and off line publishers and media.
