A Conversation with Dr. Dan Willingham - How the Brain Learns & Remembers

While students dashed off campus to start their spring break, Episcopal Academy faculty and staff attended a professional development day with cognitive science researcher Dan Willingham.

Dr. Willingham is a professor of psychology at the University of Virginia where his research focuses on the brain and how it learns and remembers. His most recent book is titled "Outsmart Your Brain – Why Learning is Hard and How You Can Make it Easy." And over the years, Dr. Willingham has built quite the following on TikTok.

Justin Cerenzia, EA's Buckley Executive Director for the Center of Teaching and Learning, joined host Dr. T.J. Locke for this fascinating discussion.
