    Redefining Meaningful Education with Mary Helen Immordino-Yang EdD

    Mary Helen Immordino Yang EdD joins us to kick off our first episode on what it means to redefine meaningful education. Drawing on decades of research at the intersection of neuroscience, psychology, and education, Mary Helen makes the case that deep learning happens through doing - through lived, embodied experience - far more than through mechanical repetition. She explains why bridging research and practice requires taking a community's cultural context seriously instead of treating it as a variable to control for.
