Introduction
Much effort has been put into closing the gap between research findings and the practical application of the findings. However, efficacious translation from science of learning research to education and policymaking continues to have challenges, made particularly pronounced when there is a lack of communication between researchers and practitioners. Additionally, despite continued efforts, concerns surrounding the feasibility of translating science of learning research findings into education contexts where there is a high degree of individual variation still remain unaddressed. This course will help students to evaluate existing interventions situated within the sphere of science of learning.
- Master of Science in Science of Learning
Learners need to complete any of the following three courses to attain the Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain, and Education (12 AU):
