In Brain School, Howard Eaton explores how, by applying the principles of neuroplasticity, Barbara Arrowsmith Young developed cognitive exercises, founded the Arrowsmith Program, and opened the first Arrowsmith School in Toronto, Ontario, over thirty years ago.  Mr. Eaton discusses how he gradually moved from traditional remediation methods for learning disabilities to seeing new possibilities because of the brain’s ability to change itself.  The lives of nine children are discussed as they work through the Arrowsmith Program and then move on to either private or public schools.

Howard Eaton, Ed.M., founded Eaton Arrowsmith School in Vancouver and Victoria, B.C., as well as Eaton Brain Improvement Centre (a young adult Arrowsmith program) and Magnussen School.  He is an author of handbooks and DVDs on self-advocacy and transition planning for children with learning disabilities.  He has spoken throughout North America on topics related to learning disabilities, attention disorders, self-advocacy, and transition planning.

We look forward to seeing you at this event.
