Event starts Tuesday, March 28th at 4:30pm PT

As neuroscientists are deepening our understanding of how we learn, Mary-Helen Immordino Yang suggests that the foundation of the future of education is rooted in story – stories that help us care. Through a poetic transdisciplinary approach combining neuroscience, pedagogical theory and practice, developmental science, and a deep understanding of the post-Covid educational context, Mary Helen Immordino-Yang helps us re-imagine education generally and Holocaust education specifically. Joined by leading experts in educational research, policy and practice, this public program will demonstrate how an interdisciplinary approach to educational transformation rooted in research can advance educational innovation & change, academic achievement and civic flourishing.

The event is a special public convening featuring a keynote by distinguished scholar Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, in recognition of the Mickey Shapiro Endowed Chair in Holocaust Education Research at the University of Southern California. The event will be moderated by Dr Ishwar K. Puri.
