Robert Sylwester

Education researcher explored how our brains learn on Oct 16.

Each day - each moment - our brains sift through what would be a bewildering flood of information. But the brain manages to filter, prioritize and process, creating a coherent representation of reality. Robert Sylwester, professor emeritus of education at the University of Oregon, uses research into how our brains do their work to understand how to improve teaching methods. Sylwester is a featured speaker at the Developing Success for Youth conference, part of Drury's school development partnership with Yale University.
