The Science of Learning: Practical Neuroscience for Powerful Teaching

The Science of Learning: Practical Neuroscience for Powerful Teaching provides educators with a structured, research-informed introduction to educational neuroscience and its practical implications to learning.

The course explores how brain development, executive functions, memory, attention, motivation, neuroplasticity, and neurodiversity influence learning processes across age groups. Participants critically examine neuromyths and misconceptions while developing evidence-informed teaching strategies grounded in cognitive science.

The programme combines interactive training sessions with guided school-based school observation. Through structured observation in host schools, participants analyse how neuroscience-informed principles are applied in real classroom environments, including differentiation strategies, executive function support, and inclusive pedagogical practices.

By the end of the week, participants design a context-sensitive implementation plan to strengthen evidence-informed teaching within their own institutions.

This 5-day training course can be funded by your organisation’s Erasmus+ KA1 programme.
