Skills for Educators: Learning Under Pressure: Shaping Learner Performance with Evidence-Based Teaching Methods

Kashelle Lockman, PharmD, MA, Associate Professor of Internal Medicine
Donna Lancianese, MA, Program Coordinator

In high-stakes learning environments, pressure doesn’t just affect performance; it shapes how learners think, engage, and retain information. This interactive workshop translates the science of mindset, metacognition, and memory into practical teaching strategies that optimize learning under real-world conditions. Participants will leave with evidence-based approaches to designing learning environments that enhance engagement, support cognitive performance, and create the conditions where learners can perform at their best.
