Developing Sophisticated Learners (Online PD for Educators)
"The current approach to teaching is often disconnected from how students learn and cause too many students to drop-out, struggle, and/or work too hard to do well (Hines, 2013)." There is a science to how we learn; which is rarely taught to educators. Our program, Developing Sophisticated Learners, provides asynchronous (75%) and synchronous (25%) online PD for educators that teaches how to apply science-based strategies to their teaching.

Becoming a Sophisticated Learner (Online Program for Students)
"The way students think they learn differs greatly from how they learn and as a result they rely on ineffective strategies to learn (Bjork, 2013)." Our courses for high-school and college students teach how to learn optimally and effectively. We recommend students complete the course in small cohorts to allow for peer discussion and collaboration.
