"The Neurological Basis of Learning, Development and Discovery" is unique in that it links neural physiology and neural network theory with cognition and instructional practice; grounds the current emphasis on inquiry and constructivism in epistemological, philosophical and developmental theory; links neural network theory, learning theory, conceptual change theory, and scientific discovery to classroom practice; provides examples of scientifically-based research in education as a guide for science and math educators and graduate students; has examples of lessons that can teach discipline-specific concepts as well as provoke the development of general reasoning/argumentative skills; and can be used in graduate-level courses in science education and in-service courses for science teachers.
