"In this unique resource, [the author] applies insights from brain-based research to the classroom. Working from the premise that teachers tend to teach in much the same way that they learn, [she] provides questionnaires that help you identify your learning preferences. You'll explore your left-brain / right-brain preference, multiple intelligence profile, information-processing preferences, learning style, and emotional intelligence."
