Brain Waves: The Power of Designing for the Brain with Lauren Waldman
Yo ho, ho ho, it's a learning life for me! In this episode, I had an absolute blast chatting with Lauren Waldman, a.k.a 'The Learning Pirate'. Lauren's a certified learning scientist who's on a mission to make brainy stuff more approachable. We kick things off by hearing about how she ended up becoming a 'Learning Pirate' and what made her venture into the fascinating world of learning sciences.
We then delve into the murky waters of why so many folks in the Learning and Development (L&D) realm aren't clued up on brain matters. Trust me, Lauren doesn't hold back here!
It's not all doom and gloom though. Yes, the brain can be a complex and confusing beast, but Lauren and I discuss how it's not only possible but vital, to start learning more about it. With her insights, she makes the daunting world of neuroscience feel like an exciting treasure hunt.
So, ready to embark on a thrilling journey into the brain? Join us, and let's discover the hidden treasures of effective learning together. Beware, once you start exploring with 'The Learning Pirate', you might never look at learning the same way again!
