The purpose of this work is to inform educators about the brain science related to emotion and learning, and, more important, to offer strategies to apply these understandings to their own teaching.

As an educator I had been trained in how to deliver content and organize my lessons, but I had not been taught how to design learning experiences that support emotions for learning.

• A. The author wishes, through his work, to inform us about brain science and learning.
• B. The author, through his work, wishes to offer strategies to apply our learnings to our teaching.
• C. The author feels that the newness of his approach lies in linking emotion oriented approach to brain.
• D. The author wants to use emotions as a strategy for learning.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A, C, D

To address the task of identifying the correct statements based on the given passage, we will analyze each statement in relation to the passage content:

1. The passage states, "The purpose of this work is to inform educators about the brain science related to emotion and learning," confirming the assertion "The author wishes, through his work, to inform us about brain science and learning." is correct.
2. Next, in the passage, the phrase "to offer strategies to apply these understandings to their own teaching" suggests applying emotions and brain science knowledge to teaching practices. Hence, "The author, through his work, wishes to offer strategies to apply our learnings to our teaching." is implicit but not clearly outlined as an objective in the provided solution.
3. The statement "The author feels that the newness of his approach lies in linking emotion oriented approach to brain." is supported by, "integrating the lens of emotion and the brain may be a new concept," emphasizing the novelty of combining emotional approaches with brain science.
4. Finally, "The author wants to use emotions as a strategy for learning." resonates with "design learning experiences that support emotions for learning," signifying the purposeful use of emotions in educational strategies.
