The contributors investigate such questions as the following:

What are the neurological foundations of learning and of individual differences in learning?

How did educators get involved with neuroscience, and where might this involvement lead?

What does neuroscience reveal about the brain's ability to use written and spoken language, to use mathematics, and to think creatively?

How can educational neuroscience improve the teaching of these abilities?
