Mit allen Sinnen

Mit allen Sinnen

Die multisensorische Lerntheorie besagt, dass das menschliche Gehirn leichter lernt, wenn beim Lernen mehrere Sinne parallel angesprochen werden. Gerade beim Erlernen von Sprachen kann man mit allen Sinnen Sprache erfahrbar machen.
Dass dies nicht nur auf Kinder zutrifft, sondern auch Lernende im Erwachsenenalter wird oft gerne vergessen oder beiseitegeschoben. In diesem Workshop werden wir uns die Verbindung zwischen den Sinnen, den Prozessen im Gehirn und wie sich dies auf das Lernen auswirkt genauer anschauen. Zudem gibt es natürlich jede Menge praktische Tipps und Ideen.

You will also gain invaluable insights into effectively practising and reinforcing emergent language, to ensure optimal retention and cultivate fluency and linguistic confidence in your younger learners.
