This subject requires the understanding of the content of the subjects General didactics and Psychology of education. It requires basic knowledge in the areas of anatomy and physiology of the central nervous system of humans. The goal of this subject is to familiarize its students with the expanded knowledge following the content of subjects focused on the general didactic and psychology of education. The educational content of this subject is introduced as a complex of neurophysiological processes happening inside various parts of the brain, which is understood within biological phenomenology as an autopoietic system. Mechanisms of memory and learning are also discussed among the possibilities of their educational influence. Knowledge about the neurophysiological processes in the brain is further applied in the educational area in regard to the individual characteristics of pupils
The student is familiar with the issue. |
