NEUROSCIENCE APPLIED TO EDUCATION: HOW TECHNOLOGY IS TRANSFORMING LEARNING

Abstract

This article explored the integration of neuroscience, technology, and education, investigating how this synergy can be applied to enhance learning processes. The aim was to analyze technological strategies that, from the perspective of neuroscience, improve educational effectiveness. The research was conducted using a bibliographic methodology, as defined by Gil (2009), involving systematic analysis of published literature to extract relevant data on the topic. The main databases used were Google Scholar and Scielo, with material selection based on relevance and currency. Among the key authors consulted, Amaral and Guerra (2022) discuss the future application of neuroscience in education; Arias-Carrión et al. (2010) provide perspectives on the brain reward system; and Costa (2023) addresses the influence of technology on learning. The article also reviewed works by Morais and Barreto (2022) on hybrid learning and Ferreira et al. (2012), who explore the educational use of digital games. The conclusions indicated that conscientious application of neuroscience in conjunction with educational technologies can result in more effective, motivating, and personalized teaching practices. The research underscored the need for educational strategies that integrate these disciplines to promote a more dynamic and inclusive learning environment.
