The internet is filled with pop psychology and folk wisdom about teaching and learning. Much of it is wrong. On The Science of Learning, you'll hear from leading experts on how people actually learn.This show is for anyone who wants to learn and anyone who wants to help others learn, including teachers, parents, designers, developers, and leaders. Because learning doesn't just happen in school. And it's not just about math, science, or history, although it's certainly about those things. The science of learning isn't just about school. It's about life.
