Introduction
The process of learning has been investigated, unpacked and broken down by many scholars in history in the hopes of shedding light on this complicated and multifaceted process. In recent years, advances in imaging technologies have allowed researchers unprecedented access to brain mechanisms that underpin cognitive and social learning development. This has allowed a neurological lens to be applied to our current understanding, as well as the continued investigation of the process of learning. This course will provide students with the theoretical foundations needed to understand the process of learning at the neural level. It will also expose students to the technological advancements made in neuroscience and how these advancements have aided us in our understanding of education.
This course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain, and Education
- FlexiMasters in Mind, Brain, and Education
Learners need to complete any of the following three sets of courses to attain the Graduate Certificate in Mind, Brain, and Education (12 AU):
