Education Blog Designed to Aid Teachers and Academic Community
QuantumLearningBlog.wordpress.com, a brainchild of Quantum Learning Network, is now one of the most advantageous online blogs for the professional academic community. The purpose of the blog is to provide a useful resource to Quantum Learning-trained educators in order to aid in the successful implementation of Quantum Learning methods, taught at teacher workshops, in the classroom. Discussed within the blog are numerous topics including current issues, trends, and developments in the world of education. Quantum Learning-trained educators are encouraged to let their questions and opinions about Quantum Learning, or current issues in education be aired out in this space by joining in on the conversations.
Quantum Learning is the core of the company’s accelerated programs. From SuperCamp, the 10-day academic summer camp that teaches 21st century learning and life skills to students, to the Quantum Learning school training programs for teachers, administrators, and students, Quantum Learning programs are designed to bring about meaningful positive changes for kids, teachers, and the classroom.
The positive results that Quantum Learning participants have taken away from these programs have been numerous. Now in the company’s 28th year, Quantum Learning has been integrated into over 30,000 classrooms across all grade levels in over 30 states. This has resulted in statistically and educationally significant gains in reading, math, and writing. After completing a custom-built QL program, students’ test-taking skills increased 35 percent; students earning their GEDs increased to 72.2 percent from 44 percent the previous year, and 100 percent of teachers reported an increase in their effectiveness inside the classroom.
Presently featured on the Quantum Learning Blog are articles discussing ‘How to Dress for Success’ in the classroom, ‘How the Brain is Smart’, the best times and foods to eat to avoid a crash while teaching, ‘What Students are Thinking’ while in class, as well as numerous other great topics for educators to benefit from on a daily basis.
