Apply brain-based learning principles

Improve attention, knowledge retention, motivation, and engagement in your classroom.

• •Describe how attention, working memory, long-term memory, emotion, sleep, stress, and repetition affect learning and retention.
• •Apply brain-based principles to structure classroom delivery.
• •Evaluate and distinguish evidence-informed neuroscience applications from popular teaching practice.

Understand the psychology of learning

Develop a grasp of the key psychological foundations that influence teaching and learning.

• •Explain key psychological principles that influence engagement and learner participation in higher-education classrooms.
• •Diagnose common barriers to learning.
• •Design learner-centred teaching activities that use active learning, reflection, and collaborative learning.

Integrate AI meaningfully

Use AI tools purposefully across teaching, learning, and assessment.

• •Identify appropriate uses of generative AI for lesson planning, content development, assessment design, feedback, and learner support.
• •Get hands-on with effective prompts and workflows to use AI tools in teaching and learning.
• •Get familiarised with AI practices and development at Jaipuria Institute of Management.

Understand social drivers of teaching and learning: SCARF model

Create psychologically safer, more inclusive, and more participatory learning environments.

• •Explain the five SCARF domains — Status, Certainty, Autonomy, Relatedness, and Fairness — and their influence on learner behaviour, motivation, and classroom engagement.
• •Recognise classroom practices that may create perceived social threats or rewards for learners, particularly during feedback, assessment, discussion, and group work.
