Posted 4 years 4 months ago by Central Queensland University
Hold on to your seat as we launch into the exciting (r)evolution in Education!
We live in an exciting time of technology and neuroscience advancement. Education is being enhanced and changed by evidence-based findings from the new field of Educational Neuroscience (Brain Science) and, as educators, we need to capitalise on these new opportunities.
In this course designed by CQUniversity, learners will gain contemporary insights into the brain that will inform their professional practice and underpin the development of optimal learning experiences. Underpinned by Dr Louis Cozolino’s research concerning the evolution of the social brain and ‘Nine things educators need to know about the brain’, this sample course explores compromised and optimal learning environments for 21st century students.
This course is for teachers, educators, pre-service teachers and those with an interest in the new emerging field of educational neuroscience.
