The Learning Sciences Exchange (LSX) is a groundbreaking, two-year fellowship for mid-career professionals in Europe, North America, Latin America, and Africa who want to develop cross-sector skills to effectively communicate new research and promote change in schools and communities. The program’s goal is to promote a broader understanding, wider dissemination, and better application of the insights emerging from the science of learning for children ages 2 to 12.

The ideal LSX Fellows candidate will be engaged in tackling education problems, applying the science of learning, or developing messages related to adaptive teaching and individualized learning
