This paper provides a novel instructional methodology that is designed to conceptually address the four main challenges faced by 21st century students, who must learn in a multitude of educational settings (face to face, hybrid and online). The online learning neuroscience supported instructional methodology detailed in this article also provides…

Brain studies have revealed that 2 neurological systems, one for "wanting" and one for "liking," are responsible for many instances of motivated behavior. If wanting and liking are fundamental elements of motivation, then we should also expect to see them represented in educational models of motivation for learning. However, it…

In the past decade there has been a lot of attention to the quality of the evidence in experimental psychology and in other social and medical sciences. Some have described the current climate as a 'crisis of confidence'. We focus on a specific question: how can we increase the quality of the data in psychology and cognitive neuroscience…

The field of neuroscience is now providing research findings about how the bilingual brain functions that can be used to promote richer and more successful dual-language development. This article summarizes recent research, then provides practical applications for parents and teachers of emergent bilinguals. Key understandings about how the brain…

The emerging field of mathematics educational neuroscience provides researchers with new approaches to understanding mathematical development, as well mathematics itself. This paper focuses on the role of the hand in constructing mathematics through activity. We rely on Piaget's distinction of three kinds of activity: sensorimotor activity,…

As mathematics educators, we teach and research a particular form of knowledge. However, in reacting to Platonic views of mathematics, we often overlook its unique characteristics. This paper presents a Kantian and Piagetian perspective that defines mathematics as a product of psychology. This perspective, based in human activity, unites…

To effectively promote and advocate for our dance programs, we need to educate administrators, fellow teachers, counselors, and school board members using strategies that will help them deepen their understanding of dance's impact on student learning. In this article, we discuss how dance educators can use common educational language, brain…

The learning model should be able to improve student's learning abilities. The Brain-Based Whole Learning (BBWL) model is one of the alternative learning models that can improve students' retention achievement, supported by scientific literacy and concept mastery. This study aims to determine the effect of the BBWL model on students' scientific…

The human brain is a social organ. Whatever an educator's instructional goals or lesson plans, students' brains experience the classroom first and foremost as a social system. Neuroscience research suggests that the organizing principle of the brain is one of "minimizing danger, maximizing reward." Recent social cognitive neuroscience…

Neuroscience is a relevant topic for counseling and counselor education, and it is a required area of competency for accredited counseling education programs. Despite this required competency, current counseling literature scarcely addresses neuroscience in counselor education. I have designed the present study to address this scarcity by…

Global policy makers increasingly adopt subjective wellbeing as a framework within which to measure and address human development challenges, including policies to mitigate consequential societal problems. In this review, we take a systems-level perspective to assemble evidence from studies of wellbeing, of collective intelligence, and of…

Spiritual neuroscience is one of neuroscience sub-discipline which specialized in a study over brain and human spiritualism. Spiritual neuroscience study is aimed to enhance early childhood's potentials, particularly, brain spiritualism. This research is directed to answer, to know, and to analyze over a study of spiritual neuroscience in a…

Many students face difficulties with fractions. Research in mathematics education and cognitive psychology aims at understanding where and why students struggle with fractions and how to make teaching of fractions more effective. Additionally, neuroscience research is beginning to explore how the human brain processes fractions. Yet, attempts to…

There is no issue today that gets more attention and incites more debate than children's use of technology. Technology offers exciting new opportunities and challenges to you and your students. Meanwhile, movement is essential to learning--it increases mental energy and helps brain cells develop. But screen time often comes at the expense of…

Universities found themselves unprepared for the dynamic disruption in their delivery of educational services caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The rapid transition by universities to move all classes to an online format posed unexpected challenges and highlighted the lack of preparation. One of these challenges was service failure in several…
