How can we leverage&nbsp;this connection to impact&nbsp;more significant learning? Many students today spend much of their time in a screen-dominant world. Our society\u2019s heightened reliance on technology has caused many to become increasingly disembodied, and to mistrust one\u2019s own senses. As a result, many are less attuned to their bodies than previous&nbsp;generations, which impacts&nbsp;overall wellness. This keynote workshop-presentation&nbsp;will explain, through demonstration, how learning and student engagement can be driven through the body. Through the use of embodied responses to questions and embodied narratives, participant-attendees will consider how minor tweaks to lesson plans can be adjusted to center&nbsp;mind-body connections. These shifts in teaching approach enhance learning and student engagement and can also uplift whole-body wellness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Move to Learn: Leveraging\u00a0brain-body connections to increase academic performance with Dr. Nyama McCarthy-Brown August 22, 2025, Bates College Includes: Light breakfast, lunch&nbsp;and reception snacks&nbsp;&nbsp; Register here Intellectual and somatic ways of knowing are intertwined.
