Learn 5 practical steps to update college assignments for the AI age—boosting critical thinking, authentic learning, and academic integrity.

Neuroscience fascinates, but behavior guides instruction. Teachers shouldn't need brain scans to know when learning is really happening.

AI offers a surprising lens on how we think about student motivation and why behavior may matter more than belief.

AI systems are no longer just specialized research tools: they’re everyday academic companions. As AIs integrate more deeply into educational environments, we need to consider important questions about learning, assessment, and skill development. Until now, most discussions have relied on surveys and controlled experiments rather than direct evidence of how students naturally integrate AI into their academic work in real settings.

In case you missed it, Carnegie Learning published a great little report, "The State of AI in Education 2025" which is essentially key findings from a national survey they conducted on hundreds of educators. Not too surprisingly, the #1 potential benefit of students using AI was the newest answer choice added to this year’s survey:…

Reflecting on common misconceptions about educator development can help leaders create meaningful change.

Cognitive load theory (CLT) has driven numerous empirical studies for over 30 years and is a major theme in many of the most cited articles published between 1988 and 2023. However, CLT articles have not been compared to other educational psychology research in terms of the research designs used and the extent to which recommendations for practice are justified. As Brady and colleagues found, a large percentage of the educational psychology articles reviewed were not experimental and yet frequently made specific recommendations from observational/correlational data. Therefore, in this review, CLT articles were examined with regard to the types of research methodology employed and whether recommendations for practice were justified. Across several educational psychology journals in 2020 and 2023, 16 articles were determined to directly test CLT. In contrast to other articles, which employed mostly observational methods, all but two of the CLT articles employed experimental or intervention designs. For the two CLT articles that were observational, recommendations for practice were not made. Reasons for the importance of experimental work are discussed.

So let’s get one thing out of the way: I think “AI literacy” is a dangerous device of neoliberal education and it deserves to be dismissed out of hand.

Bloom’s Taxonomy is a familiar tool for instructional designers. Bloom’s Digital Taxonomy extends to include activities for eLearning or online training initiatives.

In our free resources, written by cognitive scientists, we condense research on teaching strategies, why they enhance learning, and how to implement them in the classroom.

“I read an interesting alternative theory from a scientist last week. He was saying that the data is off because, um, I can’t quite remember the reason, but it was interesting.” “That’s not a venomous snake. On a venomous snake the red bands of color touch the yellow bands, rather than the black ones. Or […]
