Casual Audio Papers 3: Mind, Brain, and Education: A Discussion of Practical, Conceptual, and Ethical Issues. By D. Ansari

Casual Audio Papers is partly for personal use. I want relisten to them while I work to improve my knowledge base, but it is also for anybody else who is interested in Psychology and Neuroscience who doesn't have a lot of time. I noticed while I work I often want to listen to something educational, but I mostly have to listen to audiobooks or lectures, but never get any cold, hard papers. And there is a big difference. So here it is.

Xeilias Canani is studying Psychology towards a Masters, and will hopefully gain a Psy.D in Clinical Psychology to start a practice.

Key Takeaways: Mind-Brain-Education / Neuroeducation is a transdisciplinary field that combines Cognitive Neuroscience and the Educational sciences in order to produce better learning outcomes in students.
It is important to create a more ubiquitous bridge between the researchers and the practitioners (the scientists and the teachers) in order to produce these better outcomes.
There are no 'quick fixes' by researchers. This is partly because of the general limitations by the scientific methodologies. Although, the research is very helpful in what they do help us to understand, so long as they are understood within their proper domains.
Therefore, it is increasingly important to bridge that gap, but also to remain humble in what the data does say. The data need to be put through the rigor of experimentation before implementation within the educational fields.
