Whether studying high school courses, or pursuing college degrees, or cultivating new areas of expertise mid-career, this book can help us achieve our learning goals as efficiently and effectively as humanly possible. It explains, in plain and simple language, the more important, practical aspects of modern learning theory and cognitive neuroscience. It helps us understand how humans learn, and how educational technologies affect our learning and our brains. It walks us through the process of putting theory into practice, so we can learn quickly, create fearlessly, and judge wisely through a lifetime of learning.

Understanding Matters: A Guide to Human Learning is a master-teacher in your pocket, an educational lifeline in the age of AI. It can help students master more material in less time, with less stress. It can help parents guide their children toward success. It can help teachers support their pupils, by explicitly teaching them how to learn. And it can help policymakers make practical, evidence-based decisions about the use of technology in education.
