Cognitive Load - What is it, and how can we do better?
This episode covers Cognitive Load, a topic that I have recently learned about in more detail. Dr. Ian Kelleher, Mind, Brain, and Education researcher at The Center for Transformative Teaching and Learning offered a wonderful review of CL and inspired me to do some deeper thinking on the topic. This week's podcast is a solo, shorter podcast, so I hope you give it a listen! More interviews on the way!

Community Culture and Mind-Brain Education
Educationomics: Somewhere in the Middle is a podcast that focuses on all pieces of educating and inspiring young people to become the very best version of themselves. The stories and interviews and opinions that appear in this podcast are not representative of one single institution, but the collective thought and research of many educational experiences. The concepts, logistics, efforts, failures and successes in the world of engaging young minds to pursue their learning passions is a story worth sharing and hearing. This podcast is the first installment to the new production effort. In a world where everyone seems to have a podcast these days, I am excited to join the fray, and I’ll start it off talking about community culture and the need to fix one’s morals and values closely together. I’ll also dive into concepts that center around belonging in school community, particularly during the COVID-19 protocol world that we live in today.
