ILLUMINE Teacher Professional Development Toolkit includes a guide and materials for running a 20-hour ILLUMINE teacher professional development course.
It provides summaries of conducted workshops for primary school (Spain, Serbia), secondary and vocational schools (Spain, Portugal, Serbia, Portugal), and a mix of school levels (Estonia).
The ILLUMINE training course involves having educators design and run their own research lessons to improve their teaching practices. Strategies such as retrieval practice, distributed practice, and cognitive reappraisal (reframing of stress) are introduced.

The ILLUMINE YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/@illumineproject) hosts videos for classroom use (stress mindsets) and video case studies presented by teachers from each of the partner countries (Spain, Portugal, Serbia, Estonia).

There are 9 video case studies presented by teachers and 12 stress mindset videos (2 in each partner language) created to support the conceptual replication of an evidence-based practice (Stanford research study).

ILLUMINE helps school teachers design more effective learning experiences by having teachers conduct research lessons and share their findings with the educational community. ILLUMINE’s teacher inquiry grounded approach aims to increase teacher use of evidence-based strategies with technology, understanding of science of learning theory (cognitive neuroscience), and collaboration with peers.

ILLUMINE mini-MOOC: The Science of Learning for Teachers. The course provides an introduction to Science of Learning Theory for educators. There are 5 videos (40 min total), short reflection activities and quizzes.

The mini-MOOC is a free, open, online course that was created to support blended and asynchronous learning of the science of learning. The mini-MOOC compliments the ILLUMINE teacher professional development course and provides support to instructors that have a limited background in the Science of Learning.
