COGNITIVE LAB · FOR EDUCATORS

Cognitive Lab

Cognitive Neuroscience · The Science of Effective Teaching

You teach the mind. Discover how it learns.

Why do students forget? What makes explanations difficult to follow? How can teachers turn findings about attention, memory, and thinking into better classroom decisions?

Explore Cognitive Lab—a developing, research-informed professional learning experience connecting cognitive science with practical teaching.

What’s happening beneath the learning?

- Retrieval practice
- Spacing
- Forgetting
Memories that are not revisited fade quickly. Research on retrieval practice suggests that effortful, low-stakes recall—spaced across weeks—supports long-term retention more than rereading.
Status: Available · draftOpen the Making Learning Last pathway (opens in a new tab)
- Selective attention
- Working memory
- Cognitive load
Working memory can hold only a few new elements at once. When a slide or explanation adds avoidable detail, that detail competes for the same limited capacity.
Status: In developmentSee the Attention and Understanding pathway (opens in a new tab)
- Elaboration
- Self-explanation
- Transfer
Producing an answer and justifying it are different demands. This pathway will explore elaboration and self-explanation; it is planned, and no module is available yet.

CyberLab

Cybersecurity · Secondary schools

Follow the evidence. Build the explanation.

Turn suspicious activity into a thoughtful investigation. Explore simulated cybersecurity scenarios, weigh the evidence, and explain the decisions that help keep systems safe.

Illustrative example

Browser-based investigations with simulated evidence.
A journey from scenario and mission to findings and reflection.
School onboarding with administrator-led teacher invitations.

Java Lab

Java programming

Write the code. Explain every choice.

Develop the reasoning behind a Java program—from understanding a specification to planning an algorithm, tracing its behaviour, and explaining the result.

for (int i = 1; i < 4; i++)
  total += i;

Trace of i and total for each loop iteration
i	1	2	3
total	1	3	6

Illustrative example

Classes, join codes, and sample lesson and lab assignments.
Java concepts made concrete through tracing and explanation.

Design Studio

MYP Digital Design · Years 1–5

Start with people. Design with purpose.

Turn a real need into a thoughtful digital solution. Connect inquiry, ideas, making, and evaluation through increasingly independent design projects.

Mathematics Studio

School mathematics · Calculus · Competition enrichment

Find the pattern. Understand the proof.

Build fluency and the confidence to explain why. A focused Grade 9 pilot is the next step towards connected pathways in school mathematics, calculus, and competition problem solving.

A = x(20 − x)

A readiness check to help choose a starting point.
Lesson feedback to help improve the learning experience.

CS Studio

IB Diploma Computer Science · SL and HL

Explore the concept. Make the reasoning your own.

Move from computer science ideas to purposeful practice. Save your answers, develop code and project plans, and build worksheets around the topics you need to revisit.

# Linear search: why might it be slow?
def find(items, target):
    for i, item in enumerate(items):
        if item == target:
            return i
    return -1

Illustrative example

Topic practice with saved answers.
Java and Python code editing, saving, and downloads.
Project planning, case-study preparation, and printable worksheets.

Principles of CS

Computing foundations

Understand the ideas behind the digital world.

Explore how data, algorithms, networks, and human choices shape computing. Move from a concept to an investigation, explain what happened, and revisit what needs another look.

A NEW SPACE FOR CREATIVE THINKING

Digital Art Studio

Digital creativity · Elementary & middle school

Imagine it.Make it.Make it yours.

A character with a story. A pattern inspired by nature. A poster that changes how someone sees the world. Digital Art Studio is being developed to help young artists combine artistic skills with digital possibilities—and discover what their ideas can become.

For elementary and middle school learners, with age-appropriate projects and room for individual expression.

Learn artistic foundations through digital tools.
Experiment, solve creative problems, and develop original ideas.
Build towards a portfolio and explore how art becomes a product.

TRY A WAY OF THINKING

A small question. A different way of seeing.

Five short, illustrative activities from across our subjects—no account needed. Commit to an answer and read the reasoning, or follow a creative prompt wherever it leads.

Original public samples for exploration—not assessments.

CASE FILE · CYBERSECURITYIllustrative activity · No account needed

Four failed logins. One unexpected success.

A school account normally signs in during the day. What would you check next?

Simulated sign-in events for one school account
Time	Event

02:14	Sign-in failed
02:16	Sign-in succeeded

FOR EDUCATORS

See the reasoning. Then build on it.

A correct answer is a starting point. An explanation helps a teacher see what a student understands—and what to explore next.

Ask
Start with a meaningful problem.
Give the concept a purpose before introducing the procedure.
Test
Make the thinking visible.
Use evidence, code traces, and predictions to examine an idea.
Explain
Find the next question.
Reflect on the result, its limits, and how it applies elsewhere.

CyberLab · Evidence and reasoning

Was that sign-in suspicious?

“What would you need to know before calling this an attack?”

Students do: Compare ordinary sign-ins with repeated failures followed by a success.
Teachers look for: A claim supported by specific events, with alternative explanations considered.
Take it further: Ask which additional evidence would strengthen or weaken the claim.

Java Lab · Code and explanation

Where does the loop stop?

“Why does this loop add three numbers, rather than four?”

Students do: Predict the result, trace each iteration, and explain the stopping condition.
Teachers look for: The distinction between i < 4 and i <= 4, supported by a trace.
Take it further: Change the condition, predict the new result, and explain the difference.
