In this episode, my guest is Mary Helen Immordino-Yang, EdD, professor of education, psychology and neuroscience at the University of Southern California and director of the Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education. She has done groundbreaking research on emotions, self-awareness and social interactions, and how these impact the way we learn and change across our lifespan. She explains how an understanding of emotions can be leveraged to improve learning in children and adults, and how the education system should be altered to include new forms of exploration, facilitate better learning and incorporate more diverse learning (and teaching) styles. This episode ought to be of interest to anyone interested in how we learn and human development in children and adults, as well as those generally interested in education, psychology or neuroscience.
