About Me

B.E.R.C.S.

TEACH IT, LEARN IT, PRACTICE FOR RECALL!

B.E.R.C.S is a simple way to remember what is involved in teaching and learning. Teachers, students and parents need to refer to it as they consider what is being learned and how it is being practiced and applied.

Without the ability to think, reason and problem solve, students who are simply expected to remember what they are told or shown as procedures to get answers do not have the ESSENTIAL SKILL that will control their future. THINKING SKILLS MUST BE TAUGHT AS STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO REMEMBER AND RECALL.

Spatial Skills IMPACT THE FOUNDATION. They control the brain’s ability to learn, to remember & recall, to transfer and apply knowledge. If you ‘taught it”, but they cannot “remember it”, then you did not SPATIALIZE your teaching.

Students learn how to learn and how to remember as they practice basic facts, not after.
Learning to think becomes learning to analyze, assess, extend and expand concepts and procedures: critical thinking.
TEACH STUDENTS TO THINK as they learn, not after.
