Skills We Develop

Processing & Executive Function Skills

Educators explore cognitive processes that shape how students engage with learning, with particular focus on attention, processing speed, working memory, and executive function.

Learning Outcomes

Master the three core processing skills essential for learning and that underpin Executive Function.
Recognize the role and limitations of working memory and apply strategies that optimize learning and reduce cognitive overload.
Recognize how processing speed influences wellbeing and learning; and apply appropriate differentiation strategies.
The 4 types of attention and strategies to capture your students’ attention.
Common root-causes of inattention.
Apply practical strategies to support students with task initiation, organization, sustained attention, self-regulation and follow-through in classroom settings.

As a class we were discussing processing speed and the common challenges for fast and slow processors. A student was able to name that her processing speed may play a role in her careless errors was really valuable for her development as a learner.

Teach for Mastery (Encoding & Retrieval)

Empowers educators with proven techniques to help students encode new information, strengthen retrieval, and build durable, flexible knowledge for deeper learning.

Educators learn...

Explain the architecture of human memory and its importance for knowledge, transfer and mastery.
Recognize common illusions, misbeliefs, and memory myths that inhibit learning.
Master and apply 8 evidence-based memory techniques that help students encode information and 4 evidence-based retrieval strategies that foster deeper learning and mastery.
Teaching strategies and methods to help students recall information including activation of prior knowledge and retrieval practice.

Foster Metacognition

Empowers Educators with strategies to develop metacognitive awareness and independent learning.

Educators learn...

How to assess students’ metacognitive skills to identify strengths and areas for growth.
Techniques to help students analyze mistakes and use them to strengthen understanding and resilience.
Implement classroom strategies that teach students to monitor and adjust their learning behaviors fostering independence and deeper learning.

I think all educators should know the science behind learning and metacognition in order for us as educators to have self-directed, sophisticated and independent learners.

Support Wellbeing

Empowers educators with strategies to foster student engagement, motivation, and positive learning behaviors.

Educators learn...

How cognition, emotion, and behavior are interconnected and how emotions and mindset influence student effort, persistence, and learning outcomes.
To acquire strategies to cultivate classroom environments that promote positive emotions, student agency, and a sense of belonging, which are essential for sustained engagement.
Evidence-based methods to foster intrinsic motivation and engagement, even for students who struggle or feel disengaged, helping reignite curiosity and a love of learning.

What Educator Are Saying

"After completing the Science of Learning curriculum, my approach to teaching was forever changed. The Science of Learning provided the research-based information and strategies I needed to truly make the difference in the learning experiences of my students."

"Graded is using the COGx professional learning resources as we take our deep dive into the science of learning. The rich and thoughtfully developed curriculum is powerful. It is easily accessible for teachers. The translation of the science of learning is essential so that we can make "Monday morning" sense of the work. COGx delivers in every way to this end."

“The COGx program on the science of learning allowed me to understand and connect the theory to the actions I needed to take to improve my teaching. COGx expertly combines theoretical understanding with application in a balanced way unlike online courses that are detached from the practice of teaching or advice that is detached from the science and theory. I could not have improved my teaching without both ingredients. I highly recommend this to anyone committed to their students' success.”

“The information and way in which it is taught is very relevant to me and my students. I particularly liked the way the program used the strategies such as spacing and interleaving allowing me to see the strategies at work and learn by doing.”
