Educational neuroscience is a rapidly evolving field that attempts to connect current cognitive neuroscience findings to classroom applications. Despite great advances, this approach also has several important challenges, and some argue that the development of brain-based learning packages is premature.
In this symposium, we will address these questions by data presentations and theoretical discussions. One of the key questions will be whether and how cognitive neuroscience can benefit education programs. These and other questions will be addressed in the symposium Educational Neuroscience
