Brain-Based Learning Workshop Series Module 4: How to Engage Learners

Deep learning happens when learners are motivated, connected, and actively engaged. Building on earlier sessions, this module explores strategies for fostering social and emotional connections while making learning more interactive and purposeful. Participants will experience active learning techniques and discuss what works for in-person, virtual, and asynchronous environments to create richer, more impactful learning experiences.

Brain-Based Learning Workshop Series Module 5:  Creating a Positive Learning Environment

Learning doesn’t happen in a vacuum—context shapes every experience. This session will help participants think critically about the physical environment, modality, cultural influences, individual learner needs, and other contextual factors. Participants will explore strategies for getting to know their learners in real time and providing meaningful resources that enhance learning in the moment and those that can support learning beyond the session.

Brain-Based Learning Workshop Series Module 6: Beat Brain Boredom

How information is presented impacts how it’s processed, remembered, and applied. In this final session, participants will explore how the brain engages with words, images, color, and layout to enhance learning—not overwhelm it. Through practical discussions and examples, participants will learn to design visuals that support cognition, reinforce key ideas, make learning more effective, and are learner friendly.
