What is MBE?

Mind, Brain, and Education Science is a newly emerging discipline that incorporates developmental psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and educational psychology to answer the question: “How do we learn best?” The answers to this question are found through an intersecting study of the above-mentioned disciplines and their broader fields. The answers will, eventually, come to inform pedagogy, in the hope of creating a learning environment for students that works with the natural functioning of their brains and minds. – The Learning Mind.com

“Recent advances in the neuroscience of emotions are highlighting connections between cognitive and emotional functions that have the potential to revolutionize our understanding of learning in the context of schools.”
