Mind, Brain, and Education: Building a Scientific Groundwork for Learning and Teaching1

Open access
Fischer, Kurt W.·2009·Mind, Brain, and Education

Abstract

ABSTRACT— The primary goal of the emerging field of Mind, Brain, and Education is to join biology, cognitive science, development, and education in order to create a sound grounding of education in research. The growing, worldwide movement needs to avoid the myths and distortions of popular conceptions of brain and genetics and build on the best integration of research with practice, creating a strong infrastructure that joins scientists with educators to study effective learning and teaching in educational settings. Science and practice together provide many potentially powerful tools to improve education. Neuroscience and genetics make possible analysis of the “black box” of biological processes that underpin learning. Understanding the biology of abilities and disabilities helps educators and parents to facilitate individual students’ learning and development. Cognitive science provides analyses of the mental models/metaphors that pervade meaning making in human cultures, creating tools for avoiding unconscious distortions and crafting effective educational tools. Developmental and learning science produce tools to analyze learning pathways, including both shared patterns and learning differences. To reach the potential of grounding education effectively in research requires improving the infrastructure by creating (a) research schools where practice and science jointly shape educational research, (b) shared databases on learning and development, and (c) a new profession of educational engineers or translators to facilitate connecting research with practice and policy.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Learning is jagged-the multiple and nonlinear pathways that individual children take to develop complex skills and knowledge.

    “Such collaborations also should utilize dynamic quantitative and qualitative methods to address the jaggedness of learning-the multiple and nonlinear pathways that individual children take to develop complex skills and knowledge (Fischer, 2009;Molenaar & Nessleroade, 2014, 2015;Rose et al., 2013).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
