Implications of selective brain research for the philosophy of education

Abstract

New technology and techniques in research have enabled the neuroscientist to make some major advances in understanding the nature and operation of the brain. These new findings could have far-reaching effects upon many other areas of life, especially education. This dissertation is an inquiry into some of the neuroscientific research that could have a significant effect upon the philosophy and practice of education in general and the inclusion of the arts in education in particular. It supports the idea of a new area of specialization encompassing both education and neurology.
