Adding the Brain to the Education Equation

The first 10 years of school life are pivotal. What and how a child learns during this period determines the life they will create for themselves, and how they will contribute to the world. It is encouraging that many educators, professionals, and policymakers are recognizing that school curricula must evolve to meet the needs of today’s students. In fact, we would argue that a revolution is due.

Part 3 of the Webinar Series considers how the skills identified essential for our modern world, such as critical thinking, flexibility, emotional intelligence, are directly connected to specific cognitive functions. We examined how a cognitive program can elevate underlying brain processes responsible for acquiring these 21st-century skills, fundamentally preparing students to be the leaders and shapers of tomorrow.
