Renowned researcher, author, and former teacher Tracey Tokuhama-Espinosa joins CPRE Director Jonathan Supovitz to discuss “neuromyths,” those false or misinterpreted facts we continue to believe about the human brain.

She also shares insights from her new book “Neuromyths: Debunking False Ideas About the Brain,” her new interview in Kappan Magazine, and offers suggestions for teachers, education researchers, and policymakers hoping to move past debunked theories and bring the latest brain science to the classroom.

Part of the CPRE Knowledge Hub and Kappan Magazine’s “What We’ve Learned About Learning” podcast series.
