<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>If you are looking for practical ideas on how to get students excited and engaged, you will not be disappointed. Prof. Potter describes in a personal and readable style how pivotal lessons in his life shaped his award-winning teaching approaches. Real-world authentic assignments and Project-Based Learning are emphasized, as well as how to deliver engaging discussion-based lectures and differentiated scaffolding by gathering and giving lots of feedback. Although his experience is with teaching at the university level and at makerspaces, his abundant and specific advice will be of use to teachers at all levels, as well as to home-schooling parents. Because he is a brain scientist who taught courses in neuroscience and neural engineering, he provides unique insights into how students become motivated to excel. The success of his approaches at enhancing motivation and promoting learning is confirmed by numerous quotes from his students. School administrators will find the more philosophical aspects of Prof. Potter's educational psychology helpful in modernizing their schools to produce graduates who are prepared for 21st-Century careers, and who will continue to be excited about learning throughout life.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"If there was one thing I would do to enhance the evolution of our society, it would be to clone teachers like you and put them in every classroom." </p><p>-Anonymous student</p><p><br></p><p>"This was, by far, the absolute best course we have taken at Georgia Tech. You did an amazing job making the class interesting and fun, and everything from the lectures to the assignments were all incredible in getting us to learn so much about the brain. Whatever you have done to become such a phenomenal professor, please share with the rest of your colleagues..."</p><p>-Morgan Wolfe</p><p><br></p><p>"Thanks for being such a great professor. I don't think I've had another professor who cared about what we are learning or gave real, meaningful assignments as much as you do. This is honestly the most worthwhile class I have taken at Tech. I know many of my classmates feel the same way, and we truly appreciate everything you have done this semester." </p><p>-Alysia Rudis</p><br>
