Aren’t you fascinated by the human mind? With its 100 billion neurons and trillions of connections, our brain is constantly trying to make sense of the world around us. But when it comes to learning, it’s not just about content or colourful delivery — it’s also about context.
In this episode, we explore Pen Principle 5: Leveraging Context, and uncover how the environment — both physical and psychological — impacts learning and memory. From temperature, lighting and noise to relationships, stress, and even the instructor’s tone, every detail can influence how well knowledge sticks.
Discover how context-dependent and context-independent learning affect performance, why learners often recall better in familiar environments, and what trainers can do to help students thrive in any setting.
Join us for a deep dive into neuroscience, motivation, and practical design tips for creating powerful, context-rich learning experiences.

VEP Episode #81 Applying Google's NotebookLM AI application
Ready to be BLOWN AWAY! - I just dragged our Diploma of vocational education and training course brochure into Google's new 'NotebookLM' - and it created this conversational podcast... seriously amazing! I want to hear the next episode!!
Imagine what you can do with this tool for students everywhere? You could use your lesson plan to create a 10 minute podcast as an overview of your topics... you could use the notes functions to allow students to summarise key points from your sessions, and much more! A great tool for education as it blends the neuroscience concepts of repetition and story-telling into one output that's easily digestible.
