• Brain friendly learning is a philosophy and variety of techniques for making learning faster, more fun and more effective.
• It is learner-centred, with a focus on positive outcomes and strategies for success1,2
• It is closely related to experiential learning3,4,5
(which has been a mainstay of adult learning for many years).
• As far back as 450 BC the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius said:
“Tell me, and I will forget. Show me, and I may remember, involve me, and I will understand.”

The Learning Legacy of the Past
19th and 20th century traditional learning models
• Teacher or trainer as “expert”
• Classroom style, serious, dry learning
• The factory model- one size fits all
• Individualistic, often competitive approaches
• Based on books, words and abstract concepts
