    "The visible artefacts are easy to see, but they might not necessarily represent the values and assumptions of the organisation."

    "So we did have a, I guess, a set of professional standards. And as you might imagine, we've had a different variation of that over the years”

    How We Learn - with Stella Collins

    How We Learn - with Stella Collins

    Lucinda is joined by Stella Collins, co-founder and chief learning officer of Stella Labs. They discuss the intersection of neuroscience and AI in the field of learning and development. Stella shares insights on how understanding how the brain learns can improve the effectiveness of learning initiatives.

    She emphasises the importance of motivation, practice, reflection, and spaced repetition in the learning process. Stella also highlights the role of AI in creating personalised learning journeys, providing support and feedback, and tracking progress

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Understanding how learning works is crucial for both learners and learning professionals. It involves recognsing the need for learning, staying motivated throughout the learning process, receiving guidance and support, practicing and experimenting with new knowledge or skills, and applying them in real-world situations.
    Neuroscience provides insights into how the brain learns and changes. It highlights the neuroplasticity of the brain, its energy requirements, and the importance of sleep in consolidating learning.
    AI can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of learning. It can help create content, suggest behaviours, personalise learning journeys, provide automated feedback and support, track progress, and generate relevant activities for learners.
    Gamification can be a useful tool in learning, but it should be optional and tailored to individual preferences. It can enhance motivation and engagement, but it is not necessary for effective learning.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "AI can help you be highly efficient at producing rubbish. So you do need to think about what's the effectiveness we're looking at, what are we actually trying to achieve?"

    "If you're a line manager who perhaps hasn't had a coaching skill or hasn't been trained on coaching, if you're given a checklist, all those stuff, here's some good questions to ask."

    "Learning just isn't magic. You can't onboard people faster than their brains can actually process stuff."

    "Good learning doesn't need gamification. Good gamification can sometimes help with learning."

    “As a scientist and technologist, I would always, prepare my data so prepare the experiment, what do we want to do. What is the situation now is the first thing, and how do we want to influence it is the second thing."

    "We had an organisation where they did have an issue where there was such a white organisation, they found it really hard to attract talent of colour, they weren't getting any applications, and so we did a really specific piece of work for them and researched that specifically with a group of people of that demographic."

    "We try and get people to have that balance of, show that you're doing stuff, talk about the data regularly, reference it in all of the presentations that you do quarterly or in your all hands meetings, talk about, right, we did the assessment, This is the Powered by Diversity section”
