[CANCELED] New Smart: Preparing Children for an Increasingly Unpredictable World
May 24, 2022 @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm EDT
We regret to inform you that this event has been canceled due to urgent matters affecting our presenter. We apologize for the inconvenience caused by this last-minute change. We understand that many of you were looking forward to this event, and we will offer this session at a later date if possible. Thank you for understanding.
Three decades of dramatic advancement in neuroscience research have given scientists and educators a better understanding of how we learn and problem-solve. Educators now differentiate between the skills that served earlier generations — “Old Smart” — and the proficiencies that will be celebrated and rewarded in the future — “New Smart.”
Join us to discuss how we can enable children to become lifelong learners, preparing them to face the challenges of an increasingly unpredictable world.
