Summary: An eye-opening and practical introduction
Comment: Jensen has expanded Ch. 12 of his excellent Brain-based Learning into this valuable contribution to educators in summarising and highlighting the importance of movement and activities for learning. The distinction between explicit learning (test-oriented lecture, textbooks, research, video, and discussion) and implicit learning (dance, theater, physical education, recess, aerobics, energizers, sports, and simple games) is useful. This book makes a strong case for implicit learning. Those who are familiar with Jensen's work can expect a good, up-to-date grounding in brain functioning and the scientific basis of various practices. Most readers will find the book an informative, readable resource. Numerous drawings and charts facilitate the understanding. "65 all-time best activators" have been selected. In trying to give an overall coverage, some areas may inevitably be given short shrift. For example, practitioners of Brain Gym are leading in introducing movement in education with great results based on research. But page 35 says that students of Brain Gym "may be merely benefiting from the extra attention". However, the book is unique as a relevant, eye-opening introduction.
