Can we redesign the classroom around how students actually learn?
In short: This discussion explores the practical application of learning science in modern education. It moves beyond theory to examine how specific principles can be integrated into school classrooms to better support student development.
To unite pedagogy with cognitive science, Kristen DiCerbo, PhD (Khan Academy’s Chief Learning Officer), collaborates with Deans for Impact Executive Director Benjamin Riley. The conversation focuses on the core principles of the 'science of learning' and provides a roadmap for educators to adapt their teaching methods.
The talk is significant because it addresses the fundamental question of how to align instructional design with human cognition. By translating complex research into actionable classroom strategies, the discussion aims to improve educational outcomes for students everywhere.
