Science Bar "Neuroscience to the rescue of education?"

LIVE on the UM Youtube channel.

Thanks to discoveries in neuroscience, it is now easier to analyze brain mechanisms and the way we process and store information. Among other things, these discoveries enable us to fine-tune learning methods adapted to children, with the aim of helping them succeed at school.

However, neuropedagogy raises a number of questions for teachers and parents, in particular :

• What is the actual contribution of neuroscience to pedagogy?
• Do cognitive sciences provide teachers with the keys to changing teaching practices so that each student can take control of his or her own learning and success?
• How can neuroscience knowledge be reconciled with the diversity of learning styles?

This Science Bar will feature three speakers:

• Gina Devau, Doctor of Neuroscience, Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Science, University of Montpellier. President of the Comédie des neurones.
• Bénédicte Gendron, Doctor of Psychology and Neuropsychology, University Professor of Education at Paul Valéry University.
• Nicolas Saby, Doctor of Mathematics, Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Science, University of Montpellier, Director of the Department of Scientific Teaching and Teaching Research.
