Who wants to
trigger my
action
potential?

Arms and
branches =
dendrites
Eye = nucleus
Tail = axon
Clothing =
Schwan cells –
insulating coating
Flailing at the end
= axon ending
In a learning context –
what might have triggered
the action potential?
How will this light up the
whole mind and create an
optimal learning state?
All about
ME, my friends and I
How we
work

Draw
me and
tell my
story

The
empathic
civilisation
Can you find me
in the crowd?

Yeah, yeah, I
know….We all
look the same to
you…That‟s
because our sum
is greater than
our parts…..
I‟m a lone
neuron (:

I‟m connected, I‟m

all

lit up!!


In fact, neurons are so like
humans that they create
human experience. Just as
people don‟t like to stand
alone at parties, neurons are
no good alone either.







We need each other to grow.
When WE grow, YOU grow.
HOW?
By having FUN
through
INTERACTIVITY.


“If eyes are the windows of the soul,
mirror neurons are the windows of social
& emotional awareness.”
METACOGNITION
Help our students to „know
about knowing‟.
Start by being mindful of
how stories can engage the
whole-brain, heart and soul

As civilizations grew, so did
the iconic nature of
storytelling, yet we're no
different today - our walls
are just more likely to be on
Facebook than deep inside
caves. As we make our way
through the digital
transformation, a return to
visualization is
occurring that adheres to the
storyteller's craft of appealing
to our tribal sensibilities.
Imagination

Association
The ACT of story –telling ENHANCES
fluency development by harnessing the
POWERS of the IMAGINATION and
ASSOCIATION.
A good story, in turn, is made GREAT, by
clever use of imagination and association,
thereby creating fun, inspiring, artistic,
memorable learning experiences!!!!!
