Whether you're cross-training into a new role or refining your approach, this series will give you tools to work smarter, not harder. Join the Center for Teaching and Learning and People, Culture and Belonging to spark new ideas and enhance the way you support learners! Attend one session or all six!
Workshop 6: Beat Brain Boredom: How information is presented impacts how it’s processed, remembered, and applied. In this final session, participants will explore how the brain engages with words, images, color, and layout to enhance learning—not overwhelm it. Through practical discussions and examples, participants will learn to design visuals that support cognition, reinforce key ideas, make learning more effective, and are learner friendly.
