Educational Neuroscience: The Basics is an engaging introduction to
this emerging, interdisciplinary field. It explains how the brain
works and its priorities for learning, and shows how educational
neuroscience, when combined with existing knowledge of human and
social psychology, and with teacher expertise, can improve outcomes
for students. Cathy Rogers and Michael S. C. Thomas reveal how
neuroscientific evidence is forcing us to question our assumptions
about how our brains learn and what this means for education. The
chapters in this vital volume step through the brain's priorities:
processing senses and moving our bodies, emotional processing, and
the difficult job of dealing with other people. It unpacks the
tricky tasks of thinking and learning, considering how memory works
and the many systems involved in learning. It draws this all
together to offer guidance for effective classroom practice,
current and future. Chapter features include key issues for special
educational needs and neurodiversity, case studies of novel
interventions, debunking of common neuromyths, and guidance for
teachers on how to evaluate their own practice. This book is a
compact, lively introductory text for students of psychology,
neuroscience and education and courses where these disciplines
interconnect. It will also be essential reading for educational
professionals, including teachers, heads, educational advisors and
the many industry bodies who govern and train them, as well as
anyone interested in the fascinating story of how we learn.
