To better understand how to use cognitive science to improve and inspire student learning, Mrs. Byers will attend a “Learning and the Brain Conference” centered around educating world-class minds. While there, Byers will learn from distinguished faculty how to prepare students for a changing global world by understanding how to engage young brains and how to advance 21st Century thinking using brain research. Upon returning, Byers will provide a teacher workshop at her school offering a variety of topics, activities, and discussions centered around learning and the brain.
