About the Conference

Welcome to Exupery International School’s fourth annual teacher development conference. Our 2025 conference will be all about the neuroscience of learning. Throughout the day, we'll be debunking common brain myths, deepening our understanding of how the brain works, and exploring inclusive, practical ways to apply neuroscience to support the learning and development of all students. Our focus will be on creating strategies that benefit diverse learners, ensuring that every student can thrive in their unique learning journey. We'll also critically examine the limitations of neuroscience in education, ensuring that we use this knowledge effectively and responsibly.

Are you ready to take your teaching to the next level? Then get ready for an engaging and enlightening experience that will transform the way you think about teaching and learning!
Participant registration starts on February 1, 2025

Join us as a Speaker and Inspire at Our Upcoming Conference!

Are you passionate about how neuroscience can enhance the learning experience? We are excited to invite innovative educators, researchers, and parents to join us as speakers at our upcoming conference, The Neuroscience of Learning.

If you're a dynamic speaker or workshop leader with insights into the neurological foundations of learning, brain-based teaching strategies, or the role of neuroscience in education, we encourage you to submit a proposal. Please include a concise biography (100-150 words), an engaging session title, and a detailed session outline (200-300 words). Additionally, please specify the types of sessions for which you are applying.

We look forward to reviewing your proposal and appreciate your interest in contributing to the future of education through neuroscience!
Deadline for speaker's proposals: 15 January 2025.

Key Conference Themes

Understanding Brain Development in Children
Stages of brain development in children and how it impacts learning as well as practical strategies for catering to different developmental stages in the classroom.
1
Neuroplasticity and Learning
How the brain's ability to reorganize itself can be leveraged for effective teaching and learning techniques.
2
Applying Cognitive Neuroscience to Teaching Strategies
Translating findings from cognitive neuroscience research into actionable teaching strategies. Topics such as attention, memory, and executive functions, and methods for enhancing these processes in the classroom.
3
The Role of Emotions in Learning
The connection between emotions and learning from a neuroscientific perspective. Practical techniques for promoting a positive emotional climate in the classroom and managing emotions to optimise learning outcomes.
4
The Neuroscience of Language Acquisition
The brain mechanisms involved in language learning, including areas such as phonological processing, syntax comprehension, and semantic integration. Could also explore how the brain's neuroplasticity influences language acquisition across different age groups.
5
The Impact of Technology on the Developing Brain
The effects of digital technology on the developing brain and learning processes. What are the evidence-based recommendations for healthy technology use and strategies for incorporating technology in ways that support learning.
6
Neuroscience-Informed Assessment and Feedback
Insights from neuroscience can inform assessment practices and feedback strategies.
7
Brain-Compatible Classroom Design
How classroom design impacts brain function and learning outcomes through factors such as seating arrangements, lighting, and sensory stimulation.
8
Neuroscience of Motivation and Engagement
The neural mechanisms underlying motivation and engagement in learning with strategies for fostering intrinsic motivation, maintaining student interest, and promoting active participation in the learning process.
9
Learning Differences
The neuroscience of learning disabilities such as dyslexia, ADHD, and autism spectrum disorders, and potential interventions informed by neuroscientific research.

I have attended all of your conferences and would like to say that it’s the best experience I’ve ever had—both theoretical and practical. I truly hope you continue, as you’ve chosen excellent presenters. Thank you so much. Your conferences are the crown jewels of professional development events for teachers. And a big thank you for the tour around the school!

After the conference, I feel much more confident and accepting when it comes to working with special needs students. As a language teacher, I discovered many useful techniques and new methods that I can implement in the classroom. I also made valuable new contacts with whom I can collaborate.
