Neurosciences and learning: Background information
This guide is for those interested in the application of the neurosciences to education, including brain and learning sciences.
Background information
- The Routledge handbook of philosophy and implicit cognition by J. Robert ThompsonPublication Date: 2023"Research and experiments in neuroscience and psychology reveal on an almost daily basis how much we know about the workings of the human brain. A great deal of this research is based upon observable or behavioural information. Yet a significant part of the human mind can also be regarded as working implicitly and effectively behind the scenes. Explanations of how learning and memory occur, understanding language acquisition and a range of ethical issues such as bias depend to a significant degree on implicit mental states. The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Implicit Cognition is an outstanding guide and reference source to this important topic."
