WORLD OF LEARNING: THE INTERSECTION OF EDUCATION AND NEUROSCIENCE

"Neuro Myths: Separating Fact and Fiction in Brain-Based Learning" Edutopia 12/8/10
"Neuroplasticity: Learning Physically Changes the Brain" Edutopia 12/8/10
"To Enable Learning, Put (Emotional) Safety First" Edutopia 12/8/10

Edutopia pieces that are not a bad little intro to the intersection of education and neuroscience, leaning heavily on interviews with Judy Willis, neurologist/teacher and author of some easy-to-read books on brain science and education, as well as Harvard's Kurt Fischer.
