Start 2026 Strong: Designing for Cognitive Load to Improve Learning

Start 2026 Strong: Designing for Cognitive Load to Improve Learning

In this free 60-minute webinar, we’ll explore how ideas from Cognitive Load Theory can help you make smarter planning decisions - focusing on what matters most so learning builds, sticks, and is more accessible for students who find learning challenging.

Dive deep into strategies to enhance information processing and retention.

The focus is on practical planning decisions that reduce overload for students - and for teachers.

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:

• Why students might struggle or disengage in your class
• Why some learning sticks while other learning fades quickly
• Why unit and lesson design matters more than motivation or engagement
• How teaching that works with the brain supports both learners and teachers

Who this session is for

This session is for secondary and primary teachers who want to start the year with clarity and focus, reduce overload without lowering expectations, and build learning that feels manageable, rigorous, and meaningful.

It’s suitable whether you’re new to these ideas or looking to use them more intentionally in your planning.
