The next few Saturday afternoons, VPR will broadcast a program just in time for back-to-school.
The Science of Smart is a four-part documentary series from American RadioWorks which takes a closer look at our education system.
The first program in the series focuses on new research into brain science and how teachers and students are applying that knowledge in the classroom.
Upcoming programs in the series include The Challenge of the Common Core, The New Face of College and Reviving Vocational Ed.
Broadcast on Saturdays at 1 p.m.
