u 80% of the time failure
u buy-in to goal
u persevere with challenge u use immediate feedback to improve

The Pull? 1. Goal buy-in
2. Achievable Challenge 3. Incremental Progress Awareness (intrinsic satisfaction)
The PULL Is powered by Dopamine

Is your brain motivated the potential of intrinsic satisfaction from knowing if a prediction it makes is correct?
Prediction for Intrinsic Satisfaction
![Page 18: Willis Parent Powerpoint](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592decc1a28ab023c8b47b7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why Did You Need to Know?
u wants to predict for intrinsic satisfaction
u needs to know if predictions are correct
u learns from feedback
Accurate predictions activate dopamine release (pleasure) so the brain:

Children need to see frequent connections between their work and their progress (to build on the intrinsic satisfaction). Effort=Progress to Goal
Incremental Progress

Using the game model of achievable challenge and incremental goal progress feedback, children are motivated to persevere through challenges

So children want to learn what they need to learn
GOAL
By seeing products or possibilities…

Promote curiosity and prediction about school topics Connect with your child’s interests Family history, photos Friends who use information in interesting jobs
Prime the Brain “Buy-in” for Learning

Acting out/zoning out is brain’s adaptive stress response Neuroplasticity=Potential Genius is more than genes Past performance does not limit future success
Important BOM Messages from Neuroscience for Parents & Children
You can change your brain’s social, emotional, and cognitive intelligence
![Page 26: Willis Parent Powerpoint](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022060120/5592decc1a28ab023c8b47b7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
When children understand the neuroplasticity they know the “why” for: • doing assignments • participation • understanding concepts • making mistakes!
Knowing Why

It is by neurons making connections with one another that learning can occur

Each time you use brain networks they get stronger and more permanent

A congested highway is like the flow of brain traffic when there are few connections available to get to the same place.

• Use new technology as it becomes available

Prefrontal Cortex
The PFC holds an executive function system that, when exercised and developed, can become our brain’s successful CEO.

More strongly associated with school readiness & success than IQ or entry-level reading or math skills • inhibitory control (resisting habits,
temptations, or distractions) • working memory (patterning experiences)
• cognitive flexibility (adjusting to change)

• Recognize the difference between fact and opinion (TV commercials, internet sites, best restaurant)
• Ask for their opinions and reasons
• Defend personal opinions with facts
• Predict arguments against theirs and prepare responses

Summary
• PFC is last part of brain to mature
• Use of executive functions promotes their greater development
• Along the way use the dopamine boosters
