The SXSW EDU featured session, Translating Research into Practice features opening remarks from Co-Founder of Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Priscilla Chan. The conversation moderated by Betsy Corcoran, Co-Founder and CEO of EdSurge, features Chan Zuckerberg Initiative's VP of Learning Science, Bror Saxberg, and Director of Education, K. Brooke Stafford-Brizard.

Translating Research into Practice
Far from static, the field of learning science is constantly evolving. But learning science myths continue to inform our practice. Advances in education research mean that we know more than ever about what works, but research-based practices don’t always translate into the complexities of the classroom. Join us to learn why applying learning science and human development to education can equip every young person with the knowledge, skills, habits, and agency to thrive in an ever-changing world.

“We want to help make sure that every student, not just the lucky few, gets the education that they need and deserve."
–Priscilla Chan
