Workshop: Bridging Neuroscience and Learning

该奖项将支持举办一次研讨会，重点是确定和评估基于神经科学的学习干预措施的科学基础。研讨会将汇集神经科学、认知科学和教育科学的顶尖研究人员，以解决与旨在增强学习和记忆的干预和技术的理论、经验和方法论基础有关的问题。讲习班将于2015年1月在华盛顿特区举行。讲习班的目标是：(A)确定有效学习干预措施和技术的现状；(B)讨论阻碍这一领域科学工作的方法和统计挑战，并提出解决这些挑战的办法；(C)讨论如何有效和准确地向广大公众传播关于神经科学干预措施的科学文献。将编写一份总结报告，详细说明讨论的成果，并强调根据神经科学原则确定的循证学习技术的前景。

This award will support the conduct of a workshop focused on identifying and evaluating the scientific basis for neuroscience-based learning interventions. The workshop will bring together leading researchers who are working at the intersection of neuro-, cognitive, and educational sciences to address questions pertaining to the theoretical, empirical and methodological bases of interventions and technologies that purport to enhance learning and memory. The workshop will take place in Washington, D.C., in January 2015.The goals of the workshop are to (a) identify the current state of effective learning interventions and technologies; (b) discuss methodological and statistical challenges that have impeded scientific work in this area and propose solutions to these challenges; and (c) discuss ways of effectively and accurately communicating the scientific literature on neuroscience-based interventions to the broader public. A summary report will be produced that details the products of the discussion and that highlights prospects identified for evidence-based learning techniques based on neuroscientific principles.
