Abstract

Historically, human beings have set out to understand the nature of knowledge and how it manifests itself in the human mind; However, during most of this journey of philosophical and later psychological exploration, the evidence obtained had not achieved the degree of precision and reliability that the procedures for measuring the brain activity of human beings have during the 21st century; These possibilities gave rise to the field of neuroscience, with which it has finally been possible to begin to understand the enormous complexity of the structure of the brain and the processes that take place in it. The findings of this discipline have led to advances in fields such as medicine, allowing the study of neurodegenerative diseases and even in advertising and product development. Companies take advantage of cognitive biases and natural human impulses to reinforce behaviors and encourage consumption; However, the field in which the greatest contributions have been obtained is that of education, to the point that a new interdiscipline known as neuroeducation has been created, which is based on postulates about pedagogy, psychology and neuroscience, to describe the way in which that knowledge can develop in the brain and how to stimulate its manifestation. Faced with this panorama, it is considered pertinent to explore pedagogical tools, teaching strategies and techniques based on neuro-educational findings, with which it is possible to promote the achievement of significant learning in students. It is necessary to understand the factors and principles that impact the teaching and learning processes in the area of mathematics and that make the training of educators in innovative topics such as neuro-education so important.
