The Birth of Cognitive Learning Sciences

Changing the way we acquire and apply knowledge & skills

Duration: 29 Minutes

Kieran O'Mahony details the history of the Cognitive Learning Science pedagogic model of Brain-centric Design, and why it is changing the way people think, learn and educate another. Kieran's journey of discovery is now changing the way we acquire and apply knowledge & skills in K-12 schools and corporate learning environments.

 

Brain-centric Design owes much to the scientists who, in the 1950s, were aware that the preeminent philosophy underpinning learning and learning systems (behaviorism with a capital B) was not living up to multidimensional claims and, in effect, was an outdated modality for engaging brain and human cognition.
