The basic idea is to learn different typical ways that the human brain works with the objective of enhance the learning process. The assignment article by John Joseph Learning with the Brain in Mind (Joseph, 2003) provides a list of 50 tips for strategies and procedures that are brain conducive to learning. These range from physical support such as nutrition and exercise to increasing student engagement by using student’s names in discussion.

Following up on some of the references cited in the Joseph article I also found this short video that has some perspectives(Jensen, 2012). One caution, the video is a teaser for an entire seminar on the topic.
