write a critical review explaining the impact of MBE principles on teaching.

Great teachers have been guided by their intuition as to what method of teaching
works best throughout the centuries. Modern brain imaging techniques have made it
clear why certain methods work, as the brain's workings have never been more
thoroughly demonstrated. Today, we have a good idea of which methods work. The
most recent research in the science of Mind, Brain, and Education (MBE) is available to
help 21st Century teachers and students succeed. MBE is a young science founded 25
years ago at Harvard University by combining the fields of neuroscience, psychology,
and education. The MBE has six principles which are important for teachers and future
teachers to acknowledge and understand each and every one of them.

One of the six principles in MBE that has to be followed is each brain is unique and
uniquely organised. Our brains are as distinct as our faces and fingerprints. Although
the basic structure and learning patterns remain constant, each brain is unique. Each
person has their own DNA. As the age-old nature versus nurture debate goes, our
blueprint is further influenced and shaped by our lifetime experiences. Even if identical
twins have very similar genes, recent genetic studies show that their phenotype or
physical manifestation will differ as a result of life experiences and epigenetic factors
(the way environmental factors influence behaviour and development).

Other than that, MBE also highlights that because experience modifies the brain.
Our genetic codes, birth circumstances, and social experiences shape who we are,
each with their own set of strengths and weaknesses. It is impossible for the brain not
to learn and change as a result of everyday experiences. Previous positive experiences
will empower learning, while negative ones will hinder it. Because the human brain is
not separated from the body during the learning process, any stimuli that affect the
body will also affect the brain. A constant stimulus will eventually result in a permanent
change.

In conclusion, teachers must be prepared of what type of children they may

encounter in the future. They must not treat any of their students lowly when one
cannot catch up on certain topics as fast as the others. Instead, they should attend the
student properly with good manners and patience. They must also acknowledge that
students are not little computers that they can control anyhow they want.
