scientists in action

We go to school to learn new things, but how exactly does our brain work when we absorb new information? Are there ways to help our brains with the process? Join learning scientist and biologist Dr. Melanie Peffer on a virtual adventure that explores the science of learning. Together we’ll peek inside our heads to see what’s going on when we acquire, process, and remember something new and in the meantime, gain an appreciation of all our minds can do. Dr. Peffer will also explain strategies for studying to help our brains learn better. Register today and get ready to learn something new!

WHEN: Wednesday, Dec. 6th, 2023 TIME: 12 PM (45 min) COST: FREE SUGGESTED AUDIENCE: Recommended for grades 4 – 12, but all are welcome.
