Brain & Environment: Implications for Learning

The panel will explore the current state of learning disabilities, and address how neuroscience and learning environments play a role in students’ success. Panelists will discuss two methods for supporting students, and how to bring them into practice: using brain imaging to better understand, diagnose, and treat various learning disabilities, and the idea that the best way to support students is to establish flexible environments that fit their specific learning needs.
