The Quantum Learning Tenets The Tenets are important concepts or guiding principles that are basic to the Quantum Learning system. These ideas are woven throughout the fabric of the system, and as a result will be rediscovered in many applications and strategies. The Tenets are specifically designed to improve our practice in the classroom by directing our focus. We recommend that you post them in a place where you will see them on a regular basis. This Is It! Quantum Learning Network president, Bobbi DePorter, calls making the most of every moment "This is IT!" Over 25 years ago, Bobbi developed the 8 Keys of Excellence, which students who attend SuperCamp, a worldwide learning and life skills summer camp program, are exposed to.

We believe the main reason is that most are never taught how to learn. When they are taught learning skills, they respond with, "Why didn't anyone tell me this? It makes so much sense to me now!" Until they have the basic common-sense tools of learning, they won't have the opportunity to discover how great they are. What's School Like for My Teen? We learn a lot from parents. They often observe how much easier it is to talk about school with their sons and daughters after SuperCamp. Before, when parents brought up the subject of schoolwork, their teens tended to get reactionary: "Here it comes: the big lecture. It's all for my future, yadda yadda." But after camp, many of them can hardly stop talking about their school experiences. With Memorization Training At Summer Camp, Students Are More Prepared For College One major difference between high school and college is the amount of studying and memorization that is required. Many young people worry that their memories aren't up to the task when it comes to schoolwork. Here again it's a matter of training. Even though there are gazillions of ways to improve memory, schools don't do much to help students learn how to train their memories.
