Description
Brain-centric design is a neuroscience-based approach to learning that considers the way the brain processes information and responds to stimuli. In this hour we will review the basic physiology of the brain in the lens of brain-centric understanding to forever change the way learning happens and understanding is obtained.
-
Understand what an action potential is and how it is responsible for communication between neurons and the transmission of information throughout the brain.
-
Study the process of myelination. Understand the implications of healthy vs unhealthy myelination.
-
Study the neocortex and understand that it is responsible for complex functions such as sensory perception, conscious thought, and language.
-
Understand the pivotal role of the parietal lobe and how it is responsible for integrating information from different senses, allowing for complex functions such as spatial awareness, navigation, and object recognition.
-
Differentiate between Intrinsic motivation and extrinsic motivation and why the former is unequivocally better for long term learning and understanding.
The attendees will discuss what they learned and any areas where they need additional guidance during a 20-minute breakout session, before reporting back to the entire group for a 20-minute debriefing and Q and A.

Hue Learn
As learning leaders, I view teachers as powerful change agents for lifelong learning, whose role is to reach for every child’s potential regardless of society’s label, adverse childhood experiences, or underrepresentation. Mental models about how our brains function and how we learn informs and empowers that capacity for change agency. I study the intersection of teaching and neuroscience in a practical collaboration that introduces relevant neuro-knowledge, which profoundly impacts adolescent learning and potential. Areas of expertise include learning sciences, how people learn and neuroscience substrates to many of the daily challenges that impact learning (e.g., stress, attention, working memory, cognition, plasticity). The primary locus of intervention is with administrators and principals where change that is meaningful and practical has high impact for teachers, students, and parents—delicately balanced three-legged stool of learning. Using in situ institutes and professional learning community (PLC) meetings, I co-create with teachers a Mind, Brain, Education (MBE) learning environment that cross-fertilizes domain knowledge with neuro-scientific research applied to learning, developmental psychology for adolescent learning, and practical applications of learning sciences in the field. Translation of meaningful neuro-informed research delivers pedagogic models that offer nuanced insights to classroom management, content exposition, engagement, and unintended consequences like labeling and stratification by establishing novel and innovative approaches to educational environments—formal and informal. This work has meaningful application for people in all learning settings and situations they find themselves in the world, and is inclusive of historically underrepresented racial/ethnic groups, women, individuals with disabilities, veterans, LGBTQ community members and others—if you have a brain you are in our club. This work is accomplished through incorporating theories of action and methods that align neuroscience with how the brain works and how children learn (HPL), within existing systems and constraints and within a framework of adaptive expertise (AE).
