Ann Marie,

I have two easy start resources for brain research reading. The first is the LIFT-Missouri web page under curriculum which has links to all of the sites used during a series of workshops on Brain based PACT activities go to http://lift-missouri.org

Second resource is my on-line syllabus for the course I taught on preventing reading difficulties. There are a number of links to on-line publications, Go to http://owl.webster.edu

Click on faculty and staff. Go to Department of Learning and Communication Arts, click the web page for Jeri Levesque. Click the course Preventing Reading Difficulties. All of the references are linked. Hey, I just found a link to LIFT here too. A one stop shop for you.

I'm going to spell his name wrong but Ronald Koulitak's book on the brain is simply the best primer to begin your study.

Best,

Jeri Levesque, Ed.D.
Associate Professor, Webster University
Program Evaluator, LIFT-Missouri

 > My name is Ann Marie Barter and I teach for Windham Adult Education in Windham, ME. I recently created a professional development plan and one of my goals is to deepen my understanding of brain research and its impact on adult learning. I have read the "EFF library" (including the EFF Content Standards by Sondra Stein, the EFF Assessment Report by Sri Ananda, as well as Learning to Think, Learning to Learn by Jennifer Cromley). I am looking for a good first book to read (or chapter from a book/journal)and I welcome any and all suggestions. Thank you in advance for your help. You may reply to the list if you think others are interested or directly to me at windhamadulted@juno.com
