Introduction
Efficacious translation from science of learning research to the education practice and policy making continues to have challenges. Educational professionals need to have up to date knowledge of the ethics, feasibility, and challenges of translation to make informed decisions for their students.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain, and Education
- FlexiMasters in Mind, Brain, and Education
Learners need to complete any of the following three sets of courses to attain the Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain, and Education (12 AU):
- MSL901A, MSL901B, and MSL901C OR MSL901
- MSL904A, MSL904B, and MSL904C OR MSL904
- MSL906A, MSL906B, and MSL906C OR MSL906
- MSL907A, MSL907B, and MSL907C OR MSL907
Upon completion of the fourth set of courses, learners will fulfil the AU requirements to attain the FlexiMasters in Mind, Brain, and Education (16 AU).

Through this course, participants will
• Demonstrate the ability to critically evaluate and synthesise literature in the field of science of learning
• Analyse translational approaches to addressing science of learning concepts
• Demonstrate the ability to critically evaluate educational interventions with claims in the science of learning
• Evaluate the translational efficacy of claims from various methodologies in science of learning research
The course will cover the following areas:
• Analysis of the various metatheoretical perspectives to the interaction between basic scientific research and practical application
• Understanding of the ethical issues surrounding translational research
• Identification of different stages in translational research
• Survey of the successful, unsuccessful, and promising trends in the translation
from the science of learning to teaching and policypractices
• Identification of the role individual variation and culture play in personalised education from a science of learning perspective
For experienced professionals in:
a. Early childhood, K12, Tertiary, and Adult education
b. Healthcare education
c. Professional and staff development
d. Quality assurance and regulation of educational
institutions, e.g., Council for Private Education (CPE)
e. Continuing education and training (CET)
