- Description: In the theoretical framework he highlights further implications of the Brain-based theory, which are (1) the importance of early development in children, (2) the importance of attention in class, (3) the inclusion of physical education in the learning process and (4) the value of an enriched learning environment. Furthermore, the researcher explores the types of stress found in the ordinary classroom as well as specific types of stress habitual to the music classroom, while also presenting possible solutions to these types of stress using the Brain-based learning theory. In chapter four, the researcher draws on the theoretical framework presented in the study to devise a Brain-based model for the music class. The study concludes with a summary of the literature and a brief concluding statement to music educators.
