Overview1) Buy-in (to believe it, care about it, and get vested
in the process, “reason to believe”)
2) Tie-in (to existing structures or processes already in place, “behavioral relevancy”)
3) Foundation (understand the brain-based principles, “competency”)
4) Connections (connect principles with classroom strategies, “practicality”)
5) Action Sets (teams, accountability, feedback and celebrations, “actionable”)

What Is “Buy-in?”
1) The brain is relevant to any discussion about education.
2) The brain can change.
3) I can do it.
4) It’s worth doing it.
5) I’m willing NOW.

Potential “Buy-in” Approach
The field of neuroscience is redefining our new understanding of the human brain. All aboard!
![Page 10: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Neuroscience Is Exploding!
• We’ve learned more about the brain in the last 10 years than in the previous 100 years!
• More than 255 brain journals are now being published!
• 37,000 scientists from 62 countries produce countless studies daily.
• Have you noticed the news?

Potential “Buy-in” Approach
Administrators are more successful when they use Brain-Based Education. Listen to their
comments. All aboard!
![Page 15: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
“Brain-based” changed the way I approached our staff learning this year, and wow, what a difference. I do not have the same tired staff that I did last year, and we have accomplished great things with our own learning that has positively impacted our work with kids in the classroom.” —Cathy M., Principal
“It really helps me clarify the elements of effective educational practice that my staff need to understand and use as a basis for all of their teaching. I can't thank you enough for all that you are doing for me, for parents, teachers and most of all for kids.” —John H., Principal

Potential “Buy-in” Approach
Keep it simple. Keep reinforcing the 3 qualities and connecting
them to practice. All aboard!

What Is Brain-Based Teaching?
It’s E-S-P!It’s the Purposeful
Engagement of effective
Strategies
derived from
Principles of neuroscience

Potential “Buy-in” Approach
Classroom teachers are succeeding dramatically by using
Brain-Based Education. All aboard!
![Page 21: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
“It's nice to be able to practice and put some strategies together before I start back to school for the coming year. I have totally adopted so much of ‘brain-based’ and my confidence has increased dramatically. My class has been much more fun, and I really feel they are getting so much more out of it, though I am still a novice.” —Bruce F., high school teacher
“The impact . . . is in many positive ways. I have successful classes and high achieving students. As a result, 89–96% of my students passed the state test in over the last 3 years in a high-poverty school. All my students make learning gains. I had one student begin my class at a kindergarten level and leave at a second-grade level. After only being at this school one year, I was the Teacher of the Year and one of five finalists for County Teacher of the Year.” —Dani O., 1st-grade teacher
![Page 22: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
For Some, “Buy-in” Consists of:
1. A “before” and “after” classroom, school, or region (reason to believe)
2. The neuroscience behind the field
3. A government mandate (keep the job)
4. Media (positive story on the topic)
5. Testimonials (staff, admin, outsiders)
6. Desperation (will try anything)
7. Choice (it was perceived as a staff choice)
8. Idea was tried and it worked (a success!)

The Best, Most Effective, Buy-in Strategy is . . . ?
Make a guess!

HINT:Buy-in never ends. It’s all about altering values and beliefs for the long haul.
![Page 25: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Overview1) Buy-in (to believe it, care about it, and get
vested in the process, “reason to believe”)
2) Tie-in (to existing structures or processes already in place, “behavioral relevancy”)
3) Foundation (understand the brain-based principles, “competency”)
4) Connections (connect principles with classroom strategies, “practicality”)
5) Action Sets (teams, accountability, feedback, and celebrations, “actionable”)
![Page 26: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Examples of Tie-ins:
• “We’re already implementing a PLC program. Here’s how this ties in . . .”
• “Our school-wide discipline program can be far more effective. Here’s how we can enhance it with this new information . . .”
• “Differentiation is going to be around for a long time. This brain research ties in to what we are already doing . . .”
![Page 27: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Here’s a Rule to Follow:If what you are doing is not working (student absences, inattention, lack of engagement,
discipline issues or low achievement):
You have got a mismatch!
The mismatch is between your policies and strategies and how our brain works!
![Page 28: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Example of a “Mismatch”:Let’s say you use a school-wide or district-wide discipline policy. And let’s say that the students
are more “in line” with fewer incidents.
But . . .
Let’s also say that student classroom engagement is as bad or worse than before. It’s
possible that your discipline policy uses fear and threat as a coercive strategy when, in fact, savvy, brain-based teachers use relationships, affiliation, and management of student status to
discipline, not threaten.
![Page 29: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Opportunities for “Tie-ins”Curriculum: Is it developmentally appropriate and behaviorally relevant?
Lunch: Is it nutritional for cognition and the body? Does it support good behaviors?
Discipline policies: Do they support attendance, love of learning, and better academic achievement? Or are they designed to punish without regard for consequences?
Instruction: Do students lose attention, forget what was taught, and fail to engage?
![Page 30: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)

These 12 Principles Form the FOUNDATION for Teaching
Each principle is well supported by peer-reviewed studies. It is up to educators to discover and test the actual strategies that arise from these principles.

1. Uniqueness Is the Rule
2. Emotional Dependency 3. Susceptibility &
Opportunity 4. Attentional & Input
Limitations 5. Adaptive & Changing
6. Rough Drafts

1. Uniqueness Is the Rule.
Students share 99.5% of the same DNA, but we have unique brains because of unique life
experiences.

2. Emotional Dependency Emotions are not part of our
life. They run it. In most struggles between our feelings and logic, we usually (not always)
do what we feel like doing.
![Page 39: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)

3. Susceptibility & Opportunity
Our brain has sensitive periods with enhanced
chances for risk and gain. These periods are from
ages 0–5 and 12–17.
![Page 43: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

4. Attentional & Input Limitations
Our brain is designed to limit the quantity of new input per minute, hour,
and day.
![Page 45: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

5. Adaptive & Changing
Our brains are not static
or fixed. They are constantly changing in
more than a dozen ways.
![Page 48: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Old (Outdated) Paradigm
““Our brains stay Our brains stay mostly the same; we just get mostly the same; we just get
older and slower.”older and slower.”
(This is old and mostly wrong.)(This is old and mostly wrong.)

6. Rough Drafts
Our brain rarely gets it right the first time. Instead, we make
sketchy rough drafts of new learning.
![Page 52: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Our rough drafts are expedient; there’s no reason to “flesh out” the details until we have a relevant reason to do so.
![Page 53: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Our Brain as a “Gist” GathererWe rarely get new and complex explicit learning right the first time. Instead, we gather the “gist” and make “rough drafts.” This is not what most teachers hope to happen. Nor is it what we test for.

What Makes Content Meaningful to Our Brain?
•Personal relevance•Context(serial/global content)
•Valence +/-•Circumstances(situation at the moment)
•Framing (alternative perspectives)

8. Environments Matter
Strong scientific evidence suggests that environments not only directly influence our brain, but also can
trigger gene expression.

9. Mind-Body Connection
Activity not only fosters the survival of our species, but it serves as a strategy for
learning, emotional regulation, affiliation, resource acquisition, and stress management.

Many educators are unaware that early physical activity supports later academic activity.

10. Malleable Memories
This principle reminds us that our memories are a process, not a fixed thing. Memories can be—and often are—altered
or lost.

Even Our Memories Are Malleable
The old paradigm is that our memory works like a still photograph or an audio recording.
But memory is not a “thing;” it is an ongoing process.
This discovery means that memory is neither fixed nor permanent. Using smarter memory
strategies means far less re-teaching.

11. Perception, Not Reality, Matters
Our brain only knows what it takes in perceptually, and it is easily fooled.
Our prior knowledge is a huge factor in determining what we see, hear,
feel, taste, and touch.
![Page 71: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
What your staff BELIEVES to be true is held as a a fact. It may, in fact, be dogma. What your staff BELIEVES will work in the classroom may or may not be true. It is the PERCEPTION of your staff that matters most.
“Hey, is your class as much a problem as mine is this year?
OR . . .

12. Social Conditions Matter
We exist not in a vacuum, but in a culture shaped by
relationships, status, rules, and customs.

Two Brain-Based, Hard-Wired, Social Ongoing Student Quests
1. The quest for acceptance and affiliation (“How can I become part of a group?”)
2. The quest for social status (“How can I feel special?”)
HINT: DO NOT get in the way of these; simply anticipate and facilitate the inevitable process in productive ways!

Overview1) Buy-in (to believe it, care about it and get
vested in the process, “reason to believe”)
2) Tie-in (to existing structures or processes already in place, “behavioral relevancy”)
3) Foundation (understand the brain-based principles, “competency”)
4) Connections (connect principles with classroom strategies, “practicality”)
5) Action Sets (teams, accountability, feedback, and celebrations, “actionable”)

Essentials1. Shared agendas (build common interests, goals,
and purpose)
2. Collaboration is appreciated (sharing of ideas and social contact)
3. Accountability is essential (as an individual AND as a team or group)
4. Trust-building through predictability and frequency of contact (weekly e-contact, twice monthly contact in person)
5. Feedback must be public (shared in meetings, school PDs, or posted with celebrations)
![Page 81: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Shared Agendas ThatStay Focused on the Target
Use goal setting. Ask each teacher to set and post goals. List them in the faculty lounge by grade level. Check in monthly and give out munchies, treats, or silly novelty items as a fun reward. Celebrate.
![Page 82: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Collaboration (Teams and Professional Learning Communities)
Create stronger ties than just “grade-level” or “subject-level” groupings. You’ll want high-performance teams that will work as hard for the team as for themselves.
![Page 83: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Accountability: Make It Public
Hold short monthly staff meetings. Ask staff to bring a success story. Talk to a couple of staff members in advance to ensure that they can go first to “get things going” in a positive, sharing atmosphere. Acknowledge and celebrate. Give standing ovations to staff members who share their successes.
![Page 84: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
Trust-Building with a Book Study
Entire staff does a book study using one of Eric’s books. The teachers can read a chapter, discuss, and make one change per month.
Log the change online. Share results. Hold monthly meetings for feedback and celebrations.
![Page 85: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
Trust-Building with Non-School-Related Activities
Staff appreciate seeing others outside of the work context, such as student events, class socials, fundraisers, sports, etc.
![Page 86: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
Feedback with Peer Coaching
Ask staff to commit to one change per month. Use mentors, administrators, or coaches to make announced classroom visits where teachers can “show off” their new strategy.
![Page 87: How to Implement Brain- Based Education Eric Jensen eric@jlcbrain.com.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/5697bff41a28abf838cbd3f2/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Action Sets: The Art of the Peer-Assisted Nudge
That’s what it takes to make change happen. Without nudges, change is not very likely. Give the staff an email, a partner, a note, or an announcement twice a month to remind them to use one of the strategies they picked up and promised to use.

Remember, it is more important that you have SOME kind of follow-up than it is WHICH kind of follow-up you use.
Keep in Action: Doing Something Is Better Than Nothing

K-I-S-S!
The more complicated your process, the less likely it will succeed. Focus on what matters, measure it, and encourage it.
