Hack the Brain: Using Cognitive Science to Build Math Memory that Sticks
Friday November 6, 2026 9:50am - 10:50am EST
Winston 1C
Ready to hack the brain? Join us to explore how cognitive science transforms math retention. You’ll experience a "Working Memory Challenge" to see where learning breaks down, then tinker with explicit modeling techniques to reduce load. Finally, we’ll collaborate to design "4-Box Power Mini Sets"—a practical spiral review tool designed to beat the forgetting curve and make math stick!
