초록

Neuroscience is revealing the mysteries of human brain. It is a natural phenomenon that pre-service teachers have great interest in neuroscience.The reason is that such concepts as memory, motivation, curiosity, intelligence and emotion basedon recent neuroscientific researches are highly important in education. However neuroscience is a kind of complex and difficult discipline that pre-service teachers are not fully able to understand. As a result, a variety of neuromyths are pervasive among pre-service teachers. Unfortunately, many pre-service teachers have wrong knowledge and information on human brain.Many pre-service teachers are ill equipped to judge the accuracy and relevance of neuroscientific explanations. In this study, we investigated the neuromyths among pre-service teachers majoring in ethics education in both elementary and secondary level. The results of this study indicate that numerous neuromyths on human brain, education, and moral education are pervasive among pre-service teachers majoring in ethics education. This study demonstrates the need to promote pre-service teachers’neuroscientific literacy in teacher training programs.

Abstract

Neuroscience is revealing the mysteries of human brain. It is a natural phenomenon that pre-service teachers have great interest in neuroscience.The reason is that such concepts as memory, motivation, curiosity, intelligence and emotion basedon recent neuroscientific researches are highly important in education. However neuroscience is a kind of complex and difficult discipline that pre-service teachers are not fully able to understand. As a result, a variety of neuromyths are pervasive among pre-service teachers. Unfortunately, many pre-service teachers have wrong knowledge and information on human brain.Many pre-service teachers are ill equipped to judge the accuracy and relevance of neuroscientific explanations. In this study, we investigated the neuromyths among pre-service teachers majoring in ethics education in both elementary and secondary level. The results of this study indicate that numerous neuromyths on human brain, education, and moral education are pervasive among pre-service teachers majoring in ethics education. This study demonstrates the need to promote pre-service teachers’neuroscientific literacy in teacher training programs.
