Neuropedagogy, Bridging Brain Science and Effective Teaching
This webinar will be held over two afternoons from 4.00 – 6.15pm
How can insights from neuroscience enhance our teaching practices and deepen student engagement? This presentation explores neuropedagogy, the intersection of cognitive science and education, offering practical strategies to align teaching with how the brain learns best. We’ll dive into key concepts like neuroplasticity, cognitive load, metacognition and emotional regulation, demonstrating how to create learning experiences that optimize retention, motivation, and critical thinking.
Through multi-sensory learning techniques, retrieval practice, spaced repetition, and mindfulness strategies, we’ll explore how to support memory retention and reduce cognitive overload. We’ll also discuss the role of scaffolded challenges, storytelling, and movement-based learning in enhancing student engagement. Many examples will be drawn from my experience as a language teacher, but the strategies are highly transferable across all subjects. This session will provide actionable takeaways to make learning more effective and meaningful.
