First symposium targets education and learning

Some of education’s best minds came together on Sunday, October 18, to share research and discoveries that are transforming the way we think about and approach teaching, learning and education at Stanford’s first 125th anniversary symposium.

The event drew more than 550 participants and an online streaming audience eager to learn more about learning. Bay Area educators constituted nearly half the group, and for K-12 teachers, the weekend event was an opportunity to step away from the classroom, hear fresh ideas and be inspired.
