The Bard’s masterpieces, plays written in the late 1500s and early 1600s, have received all kinds of digital makeovers in the 21st century.

Speaker: Andrew Cohen, Founder & CEO of Brainscape

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Education’s Dysfunctional Relationship with Happiness

Defined Learning

If you asked parents “What is it that you want for your kids?” You’d have an overwhelmingly common response of: “I just want them to be happy?” While they may add other things like health, a job they love and good relationships, happiness would top that list and likely cover all those other things as well.

It Is Time to Rethink Student Supports in Schools

ED Surge

School isn’t just about academics. That’s perhaps the clearest lesson that emerged from the pandemic when it comes to education. To be a place where students learn, schools also must support the social and emotional health of the kids sitting in desks. And that has become harder under the stress of a global pandemic, which has caused a massive upheaval of daily life for students and their families.
