Many of you have requested information regarding the Learning & the Brain Conference that I attended in Feb. 2010 in San Francisco. This is a national interdisciplinary scientific and education conference that attempts to bring together some of the latest research on education. Next year’s conference is in Cambridge, MA Nov 19-21.
There is a large body of research showing how mindset, relaxation, visualization, movement and many of the other strategies we utilize in vision therapy, See It. Say It. Do It! and RIM (visualization) are very effective. Even though vision therapy was never mentioned or on the radar at this conference, I came away with a renewed excitement about our work and brain research to support the rationale behind vision therapy.
Join me for a 1 hour overview of the highlights of this conference.
When: Wednesday, May 25, 2010
Time: 12:45PM MDT (please adjust time to your time zone)
How: Teleconference (FREE)
-Phone number: 1-605-475-6350
Access code: 961081
What if you can’t make it? No worries. I’m recording the conference. I’ll send out the link to download the recording once it is completed.
Other info: I have posted handouts on my website. The first one is a powerpoint for notes and references. The second handout is a 2 page reference that i share with patients. It contains vision related websites and related books.
Please feel free to download these ahead of time to make it easier to follow on the call and eliminate the need to take many notes.
Check out other resources on my website as well.
PLMK if you plan on attend. I’d appreciate your feedback. Looking forward to talking to you all on Wednesday!
