Orientações da neurociência para a prática docente: contribuições para o ensino

Abstract

The present work relates Neuroscience and Education showing important facts of the science of mind for teacher training. In addition, we present a study on how the brain processes learning and how the numerous didactic strategies can facilitate this process. Our research raised the importance of neuroscientific knowledge for teachers and their practices through the understanding of brain functions and how they can allow a healthy development of cognition. From there, we present a discussion about episodic, procedural, emotional, semantic and automatic memories and how they develop, presenting some possibilities of didactic strategies to be worked on in the classroom and that have the potential to develop all memories, which contributes positively to the teaching-learning process
