Abstract

The aim of this manuscript was to examine the role of affectivity in cognitive processes, adopting a neuroscientific perspective. The methodology involved the analysis of scientific research and the perceptions of students in the special teacher training program regarding emotion and affectivity in learning. The results highlighted the importance of acquiring neuroscientific knowledge to develop effective teaching strategies based on an understanding of brain processes. They indicated that the integration of neuroscience in teacher education contributes to the understanding of cognitive, emotional, and affective mechanisms involved in learning, enabling more efficient pedagogical approaches. Furthermore, the importance of continuous education courses and activities in this field is emphasized, as well as the interdisciplinary approach to neuroscientific principles in teacher training curricula. The application of this neuroscientific knowledge can promote more effective, inclusive, and personalized education, improving the learning environment and students' academic performance.
