Knowing more about how kids' brains function and acquire knowledge can help teachers maximize learning opportunities for their students, says Wendi Pillars.

Lately there’s been a push to acquaint educators with “the science of learning.” But only some aspects of that science actually help teachers do their jobs. Others just waste their time.

Researchers found that humans and AI share a similar interplay between two learning systems: flexible, quick in-context ...

Many children struggle with learning to read. Neuroscience offers a better way.

Here are the most significant reasons why neuroscience is necessary to develop personalized learning.

Teaching Neuroscience in Prison Two Cornell instructors brought their college course to the inmates at the Auburn Correctional Facility, a maximum-security prison in upstate New York.

By combining neuroscience research like this with cognitive computing, researchers can help machines learn how to assist students as they learn.

Scientists warn that we lose something important when we shift from learning from books to learning from podcasts and videos.

Something is worth learning if it affects the learner’s actual behavior and life outcomes. Perhaps nothing does that better than learning to read.
