How learning works, for people who teach it
An evidence-checked course for university and college teachers, built on Dr Anthony Moss-Zobel’s DBA research: emotion, focus, curiosity, memory and assessment in the age of AI, the neuromyths to drop, and what to change in your next session.
- Short, lettered sessions. Each module is a path of short sessions (4A, 4B, 4C…) with a course map, a notes panel and pauses built in.
- Field studies. Try two small experiments in your own classes and report back on what happened.
- Feedback on your own teaching. Submit your work and get a report showing what to revise and where to read.
- Reviewed by your course leader. Check-ins after each module, a final review, and a certificate.
