The Evolution of Learning: Designing in Partnership with the Brain - T&T SIG

Learning and development has a big problem.

Most of us were never taught how to learn, let alone how the thing doing the learning -- the brain -- actually works. So how are we designing, facilitating and building learning strategies when we are still missing the fundamentals?

In this interactive and experimental session, you will experience learning and memory from the inside out. By understanding how the brain creates and engages in learning, we can evolve our work as learning professionals, joining forces with the very system that makes it all possible.
