BRAIN-BASED LEARNING FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS: THE ROLE OF NEUROPEDAGOGICS AND EDU-COACHING METHODS IN ENHANCING LESSON EFFECTIVENESS

Abstract

The quality of primary education largely depends on the teaching methods used to engage young learners and support their cognitive, emotional, and social development. Recent advances in neuroscience have significantly influenced educational theory, leading to the emergence of brain-based learning and neuropedagogics as innovative approaches to improving instructional effectiveness. This study explores the role of neuropedagogical principles and edu-coaching strategies in enhancing learning outcomes among primary school students. Brain-based learning emphasizes the importance of understanding how the human brain naturally processes, stores, and retrieves information. Meanwhile, edu-coaching focuses on motivating learners, fostering self-confidence, and encouraging independent problem-solving through supportive communication and individualized guidance. Integrating these two approaches creates an educational environment where students actively participate in learning, develop higher-order thinking skills, and maintain long-term motivation. The article discusses theoretical foundations, practical applications, classroom strategies, and the educational significance of combining neuroscience with coaching methodologies in primary education. The findings indicate that these innovative methods contribute to increased academic achievement, learner engagement, emotional well-being, and the development of lifelong learning competencies.
