As the brain plays a central role in all learning, motivation and behaviour, L&D practitioners can enhance learning effectiveness by applying the latest neuroscience to learning design and delivery.
Join Loretta Mitchell from Neu Perspectives as she distils key principles from the neuroscience of adult learning into 5 actionable areas using the NeuroEMBEDTM framework. This approach enables L&D professionals to design and deliver learning in ways that embeds knowledge into memory and behaviour into habits.
In this session, we will explore the role of the brain in learning and behaviour change, before overviewing key concepts across:
- Environment – creating positive learning environments within the brain and the classroom.
- Memory – building long-term recall using the brain’s memory processes.
- Behaviour – managing unhelpful behaviours that limit learning.
- Engagement – increasing motivation, curiosity and drive to learn.
- Development – enhancing learning transfer through the development of new habits.
Key Takeaways:
- Identify how the brain impacts learning, motivation and behaviour
- Incorporate key techniques to help learners remember new information
- Extend learning environments to build new behavioural habits
Competency Framework: Adult Learning Principles and Learning & Development Practice, Instructional Design, On-the-job Training, Coaching, eLearning, Facilitation, Social Learning
