\"LearningRx<\/p>\n

Dear San Antonio Area Teachers,<\/p>\n

The brain training experts at LearningRx of San Antonio Northeast has partnered with Professional Learning Board to offer a free online continuing education course to all San Antonio area teachers.<\/p>\n

The class is named \u201dCognitive Skills \u2013 Understanding Learning Challenges\u201d and is designed to help teachers understand, identify and combat weak cognitive skills, which for some students can sabotage learning, even when excellent teachers use the best methods, materials and curriculum. By completing the course, teachers will earn 5 to 10 clock hours.<\/p>\n

\u201cLearningRx is committed to contributing to our community,\u201d says Gina Cruz, Director at LearningRx of San Antonio Northeast. \u201cWe want to help area teachers reach all their students, thus we are donating this course that helps them address cognitive skill weaknesses. Our goal is for every teacher throughout the San Antonio area to complete the course.<\/p>\n

\u201dThe online course provides teachers with an understanding of cognitive issues, as well as ways to apply development techniques in the classroom. The course is fun and interactive and includes information about new brain research and how it can impact today\u2019s classrooms. Participating teachers are provided video demonstrations of strategies along with printable activities for use with students in the classroom.<\/p>\n

The interactive continuing education course is based on both the brain training expertise used in LearningRx centers and in the book \u201cUnlock the Einstein Inside: Applying New Brain Science to Wake Up the Smart in your Child\u201d by Dr. Ken Gibson, founder of LearningRx.”<\/p>\n

This content-rich course provides scientifically based, research-proven methods of instruction that can lead directly to improving classroom achievement and student performance,” says Dr. Gibson. “We\u2019re thrilled to be able to share this expertise with our educational professionals in a way that will really benefit struggling children.<\/p>\n

“According to the U.S. Department of Education, over 80 percent of student learning challenges are due to weak cognitive skills,” adds Professional Learning Board Chief Learning Officer, Ellen Paxton, MEd, NBCT. “It\u2019s imperative that every K-12 teacher understand students\u2019 learning challenges and how cognitive skill development improves student achievement.”<\/p>\n

In this course you\u2019ll come to understand the answer: students approach each task with varying learning tools. These tools are called cognitive skills, and these skills determine the quality, speed, and ease with which individuals learn and perform.<\/p>\n

This course provides methods for detecting students with weak cognitive skills and tools to strengthen those skills. Teachers will receive understanding, as well as ways to apply development techniques in the classroom. The online class is fun and interactive and includes information about new brain research and how it can impact today\u2019s classrooms.<\/p>\n
