John Medina on how the human brain is not built for modern society

I love John Medina, a developmental molecular biologist and author. I have used his Brain Rules book since it was published, and have had the pleasure of attending his workshops in the past. This is a nice quick view (I mean *listen*) from NPR News that’s a great taste of his work and approach to sharing his work. For more information about John Medina and his work, check out his Brain Rules site. 🙂

What do you think about what he says about learning styles, what the human brain is optimized for and what it isn’t optimized for, classrooms, exercise and sleep, chronotypes, etc.???
