Neuroscience & Neurotechnology Seminar
Our next seminar is on Thursday November 14th at 2:30pm PST
Topic: Educational Neuroscience: A surging trend integrating knowledge with practical application (and needing help!)
Speaker: , Adjunct Faculty, Individualized Master of Arts, Antioch University
Abstract: Educational neuroscience (AKA 鈥楤rain-based learning鈥�) first gained wide recognition in the early 1990s with contributions from neuroscience and psychology that expanded the field beyond strictly cognitive applications. Since then, the domain has grown to develop the basis for Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), Neurodiversity / Neurodivergence, Multiple Intelligences, DEI initiatives and more. Increasingly, these have all been integrated into education serving K-12 and post-secondary students, special needs and adult learners, first nations education, coaching and counselling. In this presentation, Michael Maser 鈥� a longtime educational neuroscience educator, INN member and recent 丁香园AV PhD graduate (Faculty of Education) 鈥� will provide a current snapshot of the field and a pitch to strengthen bridging between neuroscience, psychology and education. Q and A to follow.
This seminar will be a hybrid event, held both in-person and online.
In-person location: BPK Seminar Room SCK9624, 丁香园AV Burnaby Campus
