| Summary: | The Neurological Basis of Learning, Development and Discovery is unique in that it *links neural physiology and neural network theory with cognition and instructional practice; *grounds the current emphasis on inquiry and constructivism in epistemological, philosophical and developmental theory; *links neural network theory, learning theory, conceptual change theory, and scientific discovery to classroom practice; *provides examples of scientifically-based research in education as a guide for science and math educators and graduate students; *has examples of lessons that can teach discipline-specific concepts as well as provoke the development of general reasoning/argumentative skills; *can be used in graduate-level courses in science education and in-service courses for science teachers. |
