APPLIED NEUROSCIENCE IN EDUCATION AND THE IMPACTS OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES ON LEARNING PROCESSES

Abstract

Neuroscience applied to education constitutes an interdisciplinary field that investigates neurobiological foundations of learning processes, offering contributions to understanding how digital technologies impact cognition, memory, and attention. This bibliographic research investigates neuroscientific foundations of learning mediated by digital technologies, considering cognitive processes, brain plasticity, and implications for pedagogical practices. The objective consists of analyzing neuroscience contributions to understanding impacts of digital technologies on learning processes, articulating productions from Fernandes, Bahia, and Miranda (2023), Silva and Silva (2023), and Cherobini et al. (2025), authors who examine cognitive processes, neuroscientific contributions, and socioemotional and cognitive perspectives. The methodology adopted is based on Lakatos (2021) and Severino (2021), privileging documentary analysis and conceptual synthesis of recent productions. The results indicate the need for articulation between neuroscientific foundations, educational technology design, and pedagogical practices.
