Abstract

Neuroeducation, understood as an interdisciplinary field connecting neuroscience, psychology, and pedagogy, aims to transform teaching and learning processes through a deeper understanding of how the brain works. This article examines how neuroeducation enhances meaningful learning by considering factors such as emotion, memory, motivation, and attention. Furthermore, it highlights its contributions to the design of innovative didactic strategies that allow the personalization of teaching and address student diversity. The main purpose is to demonstrate that neuroeducation provides a scientific foundation for improving teaching practices and creating educational environments that foster holistic development.
