"How do you introduce and take the impulse of an important and complex new area of research and practice? In this pioneering and distinctive volume, leading scholars take readers into the heartland of "Mind, Brain, and Education:" Sharing their personal research journeys, the authors present theoretical frameworks, key concepts and methods, and empirical findings that encompass the academic curricula, affective experience, and key differences among learners."--Howard Gardner, Hobbs Professor of Cognition and Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education, USA
