Self-awareness of how we learn as individuals and in teams becomes the springboard for change and innovative growth within academic institutions.
Together, we’ll explore:
- Nine learning strategies that work both pedagogically and practically
- How to use data to learn how learners learn
- Current methods for integrating and implementing learning strategies
- The learning principles of engagement, connection, interaction, attention, memory and reflection
3. Today’s
agenda
• About Laurie
• Learning, Neuroscience & Cognitive Science
• Nine Learning Strategies
1. Learning by Practice
2. Learning in Chunks
3. Cross-training when Learning
4. Frameworks for Learning
5. Learning Takes Effort
6. Making Learning that Sticks
7. Learning that Motivates
8. Engaging the Learner
9. Learning from Peers

4. Learning, Neuroscience &
Cognitive Science
Advances in neuroscience and cognitive sciences
now offer new clues as well as reinforce what we
know from experience about how we learn.
Whether learning is informal or formal, understanding
the active nature of how people learn is a key
competency academic institutions.
5. To make learning meaningful,
understandable, and motivating
requires continued exploration in
learning principles.

To be successful in the next decade, individuals will need to
demonstrate foresight in navigating a rapidly shifting landscape of organizational forms and skill requirements.
They will increasingly be called upon to continually reassess the skills they need, and quickly put together the
right resources to develop and update these.
Workers in the future will need to be adaptable lifelong learners.
