Thank you @HCPSchools for partnering with @TheLSPTeam to facilitate learning during your Science of Learning Leadership Summit that brought together leaders from every school and the district's central office!
#ScienceOfLearning #SystemsChange
🧠 How do we build education systems grounded in how learning happens? LSP launched the inaugural Maryland Learning Science Leadership Collaborative, a yearlong cohort using learning science to guide systemwide improvement.
#ScienceofLearning
🤝 Facilitators @DrJimHeal & @MegVertebrae were thrilled to welcome leaders at the launch in-person event from @HCPSchools, @wcpsmd, @MCPS,
@TCPS_MD, and @MdPublicSchools who are all leading the way in district and state-wide scale of learning science.

Understanding the Mind Transforms the Way We Teach and Learn
Margaret Lee and Jim Heal ask what really changes when educators understand *how* learning happens — not just which strategies to use. One striking result from their work with Cicero SD 99: after a year of building shared learning-science knowledge, the share of educators choosing the instructional activity best aligned with how learning works jumped from 22.3% to 65.2%.
Read the full post to see what that shift looked like in practice — and register for Meg and Jim's preconference session, Evidence-Informed Instruction: Understanding the Mind Transforms the Way We Teach and Learn, on Sunday, December 6th at the 2026 Annual Conference. Registration details are in the post! #LearnFwd26 @LearningForward learningforward.org/2026/09/…
In a new @LearningForward article, @DrJimHeal & @MegVertebrae explore how learning science helps educators decide why and when to use an instructional strategy—and how @D99Cicero School District (IL) is putting that understanding into practice.
