USING NEURODIDACTIC APPROACHES IN STEM EDUCATION OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS

Abstract

This study explores the application of neurodidactic approaches in STEM education for primary
school students. As an emerging interdisciplinary field, neurodidactics integrates neuroscience,
psychology, and pedagogy to optimize learning processes. The research focuses on how neurodidactic
strategies such as multisensory learning, hemispheric synchronization, attention-focused tasks, and
gamified activities enhance young learners’ motivation, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. A
mixed-methods design was employed: quantitative data were collected through pre- and post-tests
(control tasks) measuring cognitive performance in mathematics and science lessons, while qualitative
insights were obtained from classroom observations and teacher interviews.
he findings demonstrate that integrating neurodidactic approaches into STEM lessons significantlyimproves students’ engagement, creativity, and retention of scientific concepts compared to traditionalteaching methods. The article provides recommendations for implementing neurodidactic-basedlearning models that foster deeper learning and support the holistic development of primary schoolstudents.
