Abstract: This paper is part two of the article entitled, "Dynamic Neuroscientific Systemology: Using Tri-Squared Meta-Analysis and Innovative Instructional Design to Develop a Novel Distance Education Model for the Systemic Creation of Engaging Online Learning Environments" published in the July-September 2015 issue of i-manager's "Journal of Educational Technology." The aim of this paper is to introduce three novel problem-solving conceptual solutions which are: (1) Neuro-Holistic Learning© as an (2) "Integrated Kinesthetic Approach to Cognitive Learning©" using a (3) "Collaborative Interactive Thought Exchange©" as a dialogue and discussion procedure.
