Applying Brain Science In Online Learning Design

Course Introduction

We’ve heard about advances in brain science and its application in different fields. Learning is not untouched by these advances. It needs a practical approach for its improvisation. Brain science impacts learning processes and thus creates an opportunity for its application in online learning designing too. In this course, Sarah Nicholl shares information about her current research on brain science from fields such as cognitive psychology and neuroscience; and examines how the findings apply to online learning design. She defines brain science and its application in designing online learning.
