Abstract
This article focuses on a course-embedded guided inquiry project initiated by a senior librarian and an education professor to promote an understanding of how the brain functions and to experiment with brain-targeted teaching techniques. Information literacy instruction (ILI) takes place in the electronic classroom in the Educational Resources Center (ERC) located on the mezzanine floor of the college library. Teacher candidates enrolled in the Learning and the Brain course meet in their regular classroom and participate in course-embedded information literacy sessions in the ERC at critical stages of their research. During their final project, candidates use a neuroeducational paradigm to research and prepare math games to share with children in field-based settings.
