Guiding Students as they Construct Their Lived Realities
According to a powerful new theory of the mind, every sight, sound, thought, or emotion we ever experience is the brain’s evolving constructed best guess about what’s going on in the world and in ourselves.
The brain does that guessing by comparing predictions of its model of the world with signals from the senses, our bodies, and our memories of past experiences.
Learning is not about about acquiring knowledge and skills. Learning is about expanding the predictive model of the world that forms the basis of the only reality we can ever know.
We are working to bring this revolutionary new theory out of the Ivory Tower and into classrooms. Predictive Processing offers a powerful and practical new lens on the environment and experiences that shape student and teacher alike.
