Five Ways for Better Grades is a book of two sections:Section One offers five ways the author believes will assist any student to improve their performance, from primary school to university, and so help them to perform better and so earn better grades.Section Two is an introduction to The New School Experience, as it offers a review of the work and books of Roy Andersen. Here, the reader is introduced to new thoughts about what is really wrong with school, and why we need to dramatically change the ways we are preparing the child of today for the world they will live and work in. After all, their will world must be very different from the one we know, as artificial intelligence continues to dominate work and life and will demand a different model citizen than our schools are now producing. If we teach children how to think from 'day one' we offer them greater control in their education and life.

We think of intelligence as something inherited and something developed, but what is it that we actually inherit that allows us to have a quality of intelligence?Could it be that we inherit genetic codes not for intelligence but for the brain to devise itself through the information that reaches it from the outside world, and then how the mind interprets the meaning of this information? If so this would explain why intelligence varies with people of different cultures and so of different social levels, as each group sees the collective meaning to information differently.'The Brain Environment Complex' builds upon this principle to examine how intelligence forms and develops in the individual, by examining how neural networks form in the foetus, and how these networks become shaped by the later psychology of the mind, as behavioural experiences alter the brain's chemistry and so construct the ability for intelligence. Intelligence is far more associated with behavioural experiences than we understand, as both ride upon the emotions of the individual. To understand how intelligence comes to be in the individual, this book explains the roles of diet, language, emotion, and how a complex array of intellectual and behavioral strategies pull it into shape.To understand why intelligence is not so restricted in the individual as we have come to believe, we begin this book with a discussion of how the human brain is actually brought into construction. As we do this, we will see that the parts of the brain that deal with the body's normal functioning are indistinguishable between individuals. The hindbrain of each person will be remarkably similar. In contrast to this we will find that the cerebral cortex, the part of the brain that deals with environmental information and so provides our ability for intelligence, will be uniquely shaped between individuals, as its neural networks were brought into formation by synapses being stimulated by desire and inhibited by concerns. Through this, we will better understand how and why the effectiveness of an individual's brain to interrogate information, and to associate what is new to what has been stored, is based upon learned and developed strategies. These strategies are reliant upon a quality of language, and the individual's ability to control the fears and distractions imposed upon them by others.This affect of behavioral experiences on a child's ability to learn is little understood in education, because as a processing system it takes what the child presents as what they are, in essence, said to be genetically capable of presenting. The truth of the matter is that it is the overall behavioral atmosphere of their learning development, that directly determines how the individual is able to interrogate, process, and present the information they will be evaluated on.As we will find that language is the base of intelligence, so will we discuss how the individual is born with particular schemas that enable them to develop their intelligence through language processes. These processes, which chemically bond the child and their parent, just as they do the student and their teacher, are continually tested by the personality differences, energy, and the shifting desires between them as they share each minute interaction.By the influences of their parents, by the language of the child, by their personality drives, and by the opportunities they have to control or avoid the mental pressures of their peers, each child gains their understanding of when, where, and how to learn in school. Without understanding the real effect of these, we make great error when we think we know what their intelligence is. ¿ ¿

"Memoirs of a Happy Teacher" and "What Every Parent and Teacher Should Know" have the same content, but are offered with alternative book covers. Presented more as a fun and easy-to-read novel than the actual academic book it really is, Memoirs of a Happy Teacher strikes at the core of all the problems in school today. Many of these problems underlie those that are later manifested in our society. As Roy Andersen recounts his experiences creating a sound platform for an 18- month-old to learn, to helping bullied children overcome their problems in learning, to explaining to a dyslexic student of 17 why he never was truly dyslexic, Roy exposes the general misunderstandings behind why children really fail in school today.As the reader is carried through personal interviews, village hall meetings, evening school talks, and battle-zone classrooms, they encounter the worries, questions, and problems faced by teachers, children, and their parents--all struggling to overcome an educational service that never seems to get it right.This book is for any parent who is really interested in the struggles and dangers awaiting their child in school, and for teachers of all levels from nursery to university, as it unveils a new and yet highly tested teaching methodology purposely designed for the 21st Century Child. After all, stars, marks, grades, and final examinations are simply a question of the child keeping up with each lesson. However, what we too often fail to understand is that the stresses we incur and unwittingly pass on to our child, when we argue or are too tired and too bored with life, not only disturbs their mind, but also their grades in school. For the mind of the student today is too seldom a happy one, as it struggles to survive in a world that is far more toxic than that which we lived in when we were children, and so can too little understand or know how to deal with. This is a book that shows you how.Roy's series of books clearly and methodically map out exactly how students learn. He isn't afraid toaddress head-on the many misconceptions that are plaguing our society and thus having a negativeimpact on our students' learning. Parents and educators who read these books will not only have abetter understanding, but will also be inspired to change in their attitudes and preconceived notionson how students can excel in their learning. If you've ever wanted to unravel how student's learn,then these books are the answer you have been looking for! They should be mandatory reading forevery parent and educator.Erin Calhoun.
