This could be addition to Elanur's "All in the mind?" post. There is often a big divide between what happens in the laboratory and the way laboratory findings are practically applied. The relationship between neuroscience research and education is no exception. While there are numerous educational products that claim to be based on neuroscience research (often quite dubiously so), the real impact of brain-based research on education has been much more subtle.

The report focuses on advances in neuroscience with potential implications for education and lifelong learning. The report authors, including neuroscientists, cognitive psychologists and education specialists, agree that if applied properly, the impacts of neuroscience could be highly beneficial in schools and beyond. The report argues that our growing understanding of how we learn should play a much greater role in education policy and should also feature in teacher training.

this includes both infographic and definitions for each ways how high schools changed by neurescience. I think it is very clear to understand the effect of neurescience.

Neuroscience integrated learning is certainly a way for staying off memorization based learning.

Hey, everyone. This is an example of a graduate program in Neuroscience and Education. It is the first graduate program in the country to focus on the educational and clinical implications of recent advances in understanding brain-behavior relationships. To be able to bridge the gap between research underlying brain, cognition and behavior, and the problems encountered in schools and other applied settings is one of the goals.

This study conducted in Standford University School of Medicine reveals that brain scans from 8-year-old children can predict gains in their mathematical ability over the next six years. That is a great development to learn students' math ability and provide proper type and level of education accordingly.

Bruce McCandliss, professor in Stanford's Graduate School of Education and the director of the Stanford Center for Mind, Brain and Computation, speaks about brain-imaging technology that is revolutionizing the study of educational experiences and their effect on the brain.
