COGx provides the much-needed training on the science of learning that school leaders, students and educators need in order to make a complete transition to skill-based, competency-driven, learner-centered focused teaching a success.
An article by Natalie Young, COGx Learning & Development Director
COGx surveyed over 1,000 educators from around the world. The results highlighted the challenges in the current education system.
COGx has partnered with Ministries of Education, Public School Districts, Private Schools, Colleges, and Learning Centers to improve teaching and learning.

Learn How COGx Supported MTC Member Schools’ Journey To Mastery
COGx has worked closely with administrators, teachers, and students from MTC member schools globally applying the Science of Learning to improve teaching and learning. Across a diverse range of schools, encompassing various types, sizes, and student age groups there was one common thread: the goal of answering the question- “How will teaching and learning change at our school to align with a mastery transcript?”.Â
Educators are far more effective at teaching what they know if they master how students learn. Yet, this formation is rarely included in per-service training or in-service training. Ignoring this does not set up educators or students to succeed. COGx closes this gap with a robust, flexible and proven program offering that can be customized to meet each organization’s needs. Through modules, expert coaching and guidance as well as application guides, educators learn how to design and deliver curriculum so students actually learn.
The following set of programs are 7-12 hours each and derived from the Developing Sophisticated Learners curriculum. Each consists of 3-4 self-led modules which are complemented with synchronous group collaboration, assignments, and workshops to support educators.
Get an overview of the Science of Learning including evidence-based teaching practices and strategies. Hone your teaching practice by learning proven techniques and ensure students leave your classroom prepared for the ever-changing job landscape.
Learn how to capture your students’ attention, address processing speed, and unlock the gateway to learning - working memory. Gain a toolbox of strategies that can be applied to your teaching.
Why are some students impulsive and procrastinate, while others have difficulty planning and organizing? Crack the code of Executive Function and unlock your students’ full potential.
Why is most of what we learn forgotten? Why do students overestimate how well they know what you teach them? Gain a toolbox of strategies that will ensure your students remember what you teach them and can apply it to real-life.
Did you know that one of the most effective ways to improve academic performance is by strengthening metacognition? Learn the “ins and outs” of metacognition, metacognitive strategies to embed alongside instruction, and ways to provide effective feedback.
On average, 1 out of 2 children suffer from trauma globally while student engagement decreases with every year of schooling. What does this mean for teaching and learning? Discover evidence-based methods to increase student engagement and foster student wellbeing.
How do you effectively engage and teach your twice exceptional students? How about those with language processing disorders? Learn how your student’s cognitive profiles affect their learning in your classroom and what strategies and systems you can put into place to effectively teach your diverse learners.
There is an art and a science to change management. To best support teachers and students in applying the evidence-based instruction through proven programs that distill the science of learning, school leaders benefit from support and coaching. In a mix of online modules and workshops, school leaders gain a high-level understanding of how students learn, the ability to be an effective advocate among stakeholders, and a toolbox of methods to support faculty.
We also offer customized workshops for your community on the topics listed above. Organizations may select the topics of interest, duration, desired date, and format (in-person or virtual).
Schools ask students to learn without explicitly teaching them how to do so effectively. Research reveals they rely on the least effective strategies to learn. This causes students to work too hard and/or underperform. An education is incomplete if we fail to teach our students how to learn optimally. COGx closes this gap by democratizing the science of learning for students with various versions of the program for middle school through college-level students.
