Moody. Reckless. Impractical. Insecure. Distracted. These are all words commonly used to describe adolescents. But what if we recast these traits in a positive light? Teens possess insight, passion, idealism, sensitivity, and creativity in abundance--all qualities that can make a significant positive contribution to society.In this thought-provoking book, Thomas Armstrong looks at the power and promise of the teenage brain from an empathetic, strength-based perspective—and describes what middle and high school educators can do to make the most of their students' potential.Thoroughly grounded in current neuroscience research, the book explains what we know about how the adolescent brain works and proposes eight essential instructional elements that will help students develop the ability to think, make healthy choices, regulate their emotions, handle social conflict, consolidate their identities, and learn enough about the world to move into adulthood with dignity and grace.Armstrong provides practical strategies and real-life examples from schools that illustrate these eight key practices in action. In addition, you'll find a glossary of brain terms, a selection of brain-friendly lesson plans across the content areas, and a list of resources to support and extend the book's ideas and practices.There is a colossal mismatch between how the adolescent brain has evolved over the millennia and the passive, rote learning experiences that are all too common in today's test-obsessed educational climate. See the amazing difference—in school and beyond—when you use the insights from this book to help students tap into the power of their changing brains.

There's a lot of information out there about brain function and adolescent brain development. And for sure adults who work with teens need to have the facts or they won't know how to help these young people prepare for life. The problem for writers who take on this material is to 1) Get it right, no misunderstandings, and 2) Explain it so that the target audience gets a clear idea of what's going on. The challenge is to avoid offering too much or too technical information. I've read well over a dozen books that have attempted this, and Dr. Armstrong's treatment is by far the best of the lot.Furthermore, he gives several dozen detailed, nicely organized suggestions for educators to have a positive impact on brain development of middle school and high school students. Because they CAN have this impact; they're in a position to do so, if only they know what to do. It's important because the outcome at the end of adolescence - the rest of adult life - is not fore-ordained. Not every kid will do the work that exercises the PFC repeatedly to wire his or her brain with many foundation critical/executive thinking skills. Some will do a lot of work and will end up with talented minds. Others will struggle in the world because the foundation is weak.This book can help an educator understand what's going on invisibly, silently and relentlessly in the brains of their students, the high stakes, and what they can do that will make a difference. BEST CASE SCENARIO - every middle school and high school teacher learns about this book, reads it and uses it to improve the way they teach.
