An early pioneer


Dr. Robert Sylvester, a Lutheran from the Northwest, has been a leader in the field for a long time. He continues to give helpful advice in a regular column and has some helpful books published as well, one from the early years and one more recent.

Back in the early days

Some of the early pioneers in interpreting research about brain function as it relates to teaching include Dr Robert Sylvester and Eric Jensen.

Both continue to be active in the field. I have been interested for about 10 years and have seen a very noticeable shift in the last few years towards highly commercialized endeavors... you have to sift through more commercials to get to the good stuff. But good stuff is out there so keep digging.
