GSoLEN celebrates network members
We would like to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for your contributions in 2024. We look forward to many more successful engagements and collaborations in 2025.

Meet our Scientist of the Month: Associate Professor Janaina Weissheimer
"Language serves as a window into the intricate workings of cognition and mental processes. My journey through various regions of Brazil has led me to the beautiful shores of Natal, where I am passionate about bridging the gap between scientists and educators. Through my research, I aim to unravel the psycholinguistic processes that shape our understanding of speech, particularly in how environmental factors influence language development across different stages of life."
Meet our Scientist of the Month: Professor Carmen Julia Coloma Tirapegui
"Understanding and supporting language development in children with Developmental Language Disorder is key to their academic and personal success, as each language skill builds a foundation for their future."
Meet our Scientist of the Month: Professor Nancy Law
"The most important quality of a teacher is not his/her instructional prowess but whether he/she understands how people learn and how to create the conditions for people (young or old) to assume their agency and ownership of their learning. This insight, gained from my experience as a STEM teacher, has guided my research in learning sciences and my pursuit of innovative approaches to technology-enhanced learning."
Meet our Scientist of the Month: Dr.Victor Hugo Minces
"Growing up, I loved both science and art, but school made science seem boring. My journey through fine arts and neuroscience reignited my passion, and now I aim to inspire that same wonder in every child. I believe the science classroom can be a space of creativity and fascination, where students discover the beauty of the physical world through the connections between science, sound, and music."

UNESCO Alliance on the Science of Learning

GSoLEN and many of our network scientists were honored to participate in the Global Alliance on the Science of Learning meeting, held in Paris in December as panelists and moderators.

Also, our Director, Kelly Shiohira, moderated a session on Knowledge Brokering at the UNESCO Alliance on the Science of Learning annual meeting. The panel included an international group of experts who presented different strategies for knowledge brokering, and robust audience participation.

GSoLEN is excited to continue to explore and develop knowledge-brokering as a concept and a practice, and invites collaborators to the cause!

We look forward to co-hosting this event with the UNESCO team in 2025.

AI Action Collaborative Webinar Recap

Our AI Action Collaborative held two important webinars discussing the intersection of AI, the Science of Learning, and Education. We are grateful to our panelists, and their full contributions can be seen on our YouTube Channel. In 2025, moderator Carla Aerts will turn her attention to developing contexts with the third webinar in this series.

2024 New Partnerships

In 2024, GSoLEN formed significant new partnerships and grew its membership and social media followings. We would especially like to highlight our new partnerships with UNESCOAccelNETInternational Centre for EdTech ImpactEdCortexMindCET, and Everyone.AI. We look forward to expanding this list and deepening our collaborations this year.

Scientists’ Corner

In 2024, we had the opportunity to highlight the work of many of our scientists, and we will continue these features throughout 2025.

Our first scientist of the month for 2025 is Janaina Weissheimer.

To achieve maximum worldwide benefit from science-based strategies designed to meet the learning needs of diverse students and our global future.

Our Vision

The GSoLEN network strives to elevate learning around the world by building a global scientific infrastructure to address the increasing learning needs of young people in a fast-changing world.

The Network

The GSoLEN network of 700 members (and growing)  represents a broad cross-section of international scientists, education leaders, practitioners, and policy experts from 60 countries around the world.

AI Action Collaborative

Just as the science of learning provided the foundation for developing AI, GSoLEN has formed a working group of policymakers, researchers, AI and EdTech developers and designers, learners, teachers, and parents to ensure SoL guides decisions and applications of this fast-growing technology. Carla Aerts leads this from the United Kingdom. Much more to come from this active collaboration initiative.
