This volume presents a short review study of the potential relationships between cognitive neuroscience and educational science. Conducted by order of the Dutch Programme Council for Educational Research of the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO; cf. the American NSF), the review aims to identify: (1) how educational principles, mechanisms, and theories could be extended or refined based on findings from cognitive neuroscience, and (2) which neuroscience principles, mechanisms, or theories may have implications for educational research and could lead to new interdisciplinary research ventures.
