Cognitive education in today’s digital era blends technology with learning to foster active participation, problem-solving, and critical thinking. Technology is used to make learning more engaging and interactive. Foundational theories—such as constructivism, cognitive development, and social learning—have adapted to meet evolving learner needs and societal priorities. Tools like gamification and online platforms have become integral to modern teaching, reshaping traditional approaches. The overarching aim is to build a smart educational community that equips students with the knowledge and skills essential for thriving in the 21st century. So how do we achieve such engagements in a rapidly changing learning environment?

When Cognitive Tools Open Up Opportunity to Differentiate
In person – Onsite Course
Tuesday, 23 June 2026
17h00 – 18h00
Presenter: Alison Scott
Teachers feel over burdened at the best of times. When they don’t know how to differentiate their lessons and teach every learner, they feel defeated. Apart from preparation and planning, how will they assess knowledge and skills if the learners complete a variety of tasks? This talk will explore the integration of cognitive strategies into existing lesson and assessment planning to meet their goals for individualisation without tripling their workload.
