BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND LEARNING ACROSS THE LIFESPAN: A NEUROEDUCATIONAL PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Learning is a neurobiological process that can occur at all ages owing to modifications of the brain's microstructure. Learning in human beings has a direct connection with the organic development of the human brain, which occurs at all stages of human life. Starting from prenatal neurogenesis to the process of synaptic pruning during adolescence and then covering adult specialization and cognitive compensation during old age, the development of the human brain impacts the process of learning. Based on the biological and applied aspects presented, we will cover the development and learning of the human brain at all stages of life.
