Dear Colleagues,

The field of neuroeducation, resulting from combining neuroscience and education, was first proposed over fifty years ago and was met with great enthusiasm. Initially, it was posited that neurophysiological methods could provide insights into learning disorders and specific educational practices, but more lofty ambitions followed. However, despite the early enthusiasm, neuroscience does not yet appear to have had a significant impact on education practice, and several papers have discussed the challenges to neuroscience and education working together effectively and the rise of neuromyths in the classroom.

This Special Issue focuses on research that aims to connect neuroscience and education and debate about the use of neuroscience in education at all levels, not limited to pre-school, elementary, secondary, or pre-college. As we aim to progress the field of neuroeducation, prospective authors are encouraged to strengthen both the provision of theoretical foundations and the technical/practical guidelines beyond the existing research. We welcome submissions with a broad scope. Key topics include, but are not limited to:

• Neuroscience informed pedagogy;
• Professional training (teacher training in neuroscience or neuroscience training in education);
• Neuroscience of special education needs;
• Neurodiversity in education;
• Barriers and opportunities in neuroeducation;
• Disciplines that might bridge the gap between neuroscience and education;
• Neuromyths.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Behavioral Sciences.
