Description: This is a discussion document for the ESRC-TLRP Seminar Series “Collaborative Frameworks for Neuroscience and Education”. It seeks to: - Identify issues characterizing the broadest interpretation of the scope of the seminar series. - Begin to raise questions that may be directly addressed through discussions arising from the seminar series and/or evaluated during the series for their tractability and value as potential future research questions A short indicative review of recent instances of neuroscience interacting with education and is divided into 3 areas. The first is “Developmental Disorders”, where neuroscience has made the most significant impact to date, chiefly supported by the interests and motivations of educational psychologists. The second is “Teaching and Learning”, which includes issues of broad interest to those involved with the daily practice of teaching and learning. The third is “Curriculum”, where policy makers and educators have traditionally drawn upon a wide spectrum of factors when determining what should be learnt and when, including those derived from our knowledge of human development. It also contains a brief and speculative appraisal of recent developments that may significant for education in the future. In addition, Section 4 discusses issues with potential theoretical interrelationships between neuroscience and education, which is of undoubted importance to issues of perception discussed in Section 5. Finally, Section 6 touches upon research agendas and the general types of projects that might pursue them.
