Updating the school: neurodidactics in foreign language teaching

Summary/Abstract: Neurodidactics or brain-based learning, a relatively new interdisciplinary science, constitutes an interface between didactics, neuroscience, pedagogy and psychology. Based on the latest findings of brain research, it provides principles and suggestions for effective brain-based learning and teaching. This paper entitled “Updating the school: neurodidactics in foreign language teaching” describes the principles of neurodidactics or brain-based learning with reference to foreign language teaching. It presents the basics of neurodidactics and brain-based teaching and the way it affects learning and memory. With this in mind, some brain-based ideas and approaches for the foreign language classroom are explained which may help to find a better and more effective way of foreign language learning and teaching.
