Neuroscience of Learning Award
The Neuroscience of Learning Award recognises exceptional educational initiatives that place neuroscience or learning science research at the core of learning design and practice. This category celebrates projects that intentionally translate insights from cognitive neuroscience, brain-based research, or learning science into instructional approaches that enhance how learners process, retain, and apply knowledge.
Successful initiatives will demonstrate a clear link between neuroscientific principles and instructional decisions, supported by credible evidence of impact on learning processes, learner outcomes, or instructional effectiveness. Neuroscience must be a foundational driver of the project, not simply one of several influences.
This category values rigorous theory-to-practice translation and contributions that advance understanding of how people learn.
