Abstract
The technology and research methods of neuroscientists have started to reveal, at the most basic level, what happens in the brain when children learn something new, or cannot read, or cannot do simple calculations.
As these studies mature, it is possible for a child to engage in simple exercises or a teacher to help in ensuring that he/she can learn better. Such interventions can have a huge effect on educational outcomes by reducing the incidences of dyslexia and dyscalculia.
