A thorough understanding of neuroscience, cognitive psychology, pedagogical methods, and content is essential if one is to be a truly outstanding educator. Constant research into these areas on the part of teachers and administrators will help students to make meaningful connections and will lead to long-term retention and knowledge organization. Ethics, "life lessons," and practical application of learning are critical. Dedication to helping all students achieve is mirrored by rigorous expectations regarding excellence for all. A great educator has a heart and a brain and readily utilizes both every single day with every single child.
