Abstract

Hart (1983) called the brain "the organ of learning." He advocated learning more about the brain in order to design effective learning environments. How learning occurs in the brain? Learning occurs when we construct meaning and understanding of our experiences. Construction of meaning is the natural function of the human brain. We integrate and synthesize new information into our existing understandings to make sensible meaning. The brain appears to become more active in its search for meaning when it encounters information and experiences that fail to fit its existing patterns of meaning. So, we can perform education with brain-compatible situations. Learning is getting better way in these situations. In this context, the purpose of this study is examine to effects of the situations (for example: environment, stress, music, food, water, movement) on learning. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
