Is the current classroom model of learning “brain-unfriendly”? Why are students failing to master numeracy and literacyi skills efficiently enough to be employable? Why are one out of six students disruptive and school-haters?
Since 1999, CERI's “Brain and Learning” project has been working towards a better understanding of the learning processes of an individual’s lifecycle.
The first phase of the project (1999 – 2002) brought together an international group of researchers in several fora to review potential implications of recent researchi findings in brain and learning sciences for policy-makers. The results of this phase was synthesised into an OECD publication entitled: “Understanding the Brain: Towards a New Learning Science”.
