Uniting Brain Research and Instructional Practice with Richard Lemons (Yale)

​Are you an educator in K-12 or higher-ed looking to improve your craft? Or an administrator seeking to leverage pedagogical practice backed by research?

​We're excited to host Richard Lemons from Yale Education Studies in a small, one-time live class online this Wednesday. And while space is capped, we're more excited to offer this opportunity free of charge.

​In his first live class, Professor Lemons will explore important findings from brain science and learning theory as well as their practical impact on classroom pedagogical practice and lesson design.

​He'll specifically diving deeper into Prior Knowledge, and how this serves as both a barrier and accelerant of understanding and learning.

​Each lesson will provide an efficient but in-depth overview of a single brain research idea and its practical relevance for classroom practice covering ideas like Intrinsic Motivation, Prior Knowledge, Cultural Connections and Psychological Safety.
