Humans learn by observing, hearing, imitating, doing, and feeling. The brain(cortex) is the central tore of this process. The recent rapid progress of brain science and the active interdisciplinary collaboration between brain science and cognitive science opens a new possibility. That is a new research Held called 'Brain-Based learning Science', 'Edutational Neuroscienre', or 'NeuroEduration' This study reviews the nature and basic assumptions of brain-based learning science, current directions in educational neuroscience research, the neuro-myths, educational implications of neuroscience, and a possibility of making a meaningful connection between brain science and education. Also the future prospects and limitations of the brain-based learning science are discussed.
