Designing Learning Environments Based on How We Learn
Wednesday, January 16 at 4pm ET
Presented by:
Jen Groff, Educational Engineer and the VP of Learning & Program Development for 
the Learning Games Network
The last several decades have produced volumes of research and an improved 
understanding of the brain and how we learn. The OECD project Innovative 
Learning Environments has sought to explore how this research aligns with strong 
and innovative models of learning environments for the 21st century. The project 
put together a volume called The Nature of Learning: Using Research to Inspire 
Practice, which is based on this extensive knowledge base. In our community's 
next webinar, Jennifer Groff, an advisor and consultant to this project, will 
discuss the 7 Key Principles of learning environments outlined by this work. 
These principles serve as guides to inform everyday experiences in current 
classrooms, as well as future educational programs and systems – along with the 
pedagogies that are supported by this research, to describe the conditions and 
environments that engage deep learning and empower learners. Jennifer also will 
share with attendees a condensed 12-page booklet that distills this research 
volume into a "practitioner guide." Join her on January 16th to learn how to 
design learning environments based on how students learn.
