Abstract: In their classrooms, teachers create learning environments that foster knowledge acquisition through the strategies they choose to implement. This article highlights a strategy called Brain Drain, which teachers can set up as an activity that will help students access their prior knowledge, connect new learning, and have an opportunity to discuss and build upon this learning with peers. The Schema, Cognitive Load, and Sociocultural Learning Theories are mentioned, briefly highlighted, and connected to this strategy.
