Whole Brain Literacy: Key to Holistic Education and Success in Today's World

Tayko & Reyes-Talmo’s Whole Brain Literacy, key to holistic education and success in today’s world, offers an approach that affirms every human being’s natural endowment: the human brain. As technology bursts and becomes easily accessible to people in our current time, learners from all walks of life face the challenge of sifting information and making decisions that positively impact their lives and their role in society. Cultural values and strengths that used to serve people in their culture have been shaken and threatened, but Whole Brain Literacy provides a tool that enables learners to look into what they value and navigate through the strengths of the parts of the brain to gain a good foothold and view the presenting reality or information with greater confidence and sharper perspective. Educators need to find ways to journey with these students and provide them the opportunity to learn their lessons with a great sense of ownership and respect for their cultural funds of values. This book affirms what each one can do with each one’s healthy brain to navigate the world of information and interact with each one’s given “knowledge” of the world. Knowledge on using the strengths of the whole brain as discussed in Whole Brain Literacy, prepares every learner to flex those cognitive muscles and all other skills needed to look through the trough of information and knowledge and make crucial decisions on what is needed to be active participants in the unfolding of the human society we all want to live in.
