Abstract
A debate rages concerning the ability of neuroscience to inform prekindergarten–12 teaching practice ([Hirsh-Pasek and Bruer, 2007][1]; [Varma et al., 2008][2]). Some educators charged with training future teachers argue that the mechanistic issues that concern neuroscientists are too far removedKeywords
