Cognitive neuroscience research is typically conducted in controlled laboratory environments that hold very little resemblance to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics classrooms. Fortunately, recent advances in portable electroencephalography technology now allow researchers to collect brain data from groups of students in real-world classrooms. Even though this line of research is still new, there is growing evidence that students' engagement, memory retention, and social dynamics are reflected in the brain-to-brain synchrony between students and teachers (i.e., the similarity in their brain responses). In this , I will provide an overview of this emerging line of research, discuss how this approach can facilitate new collaborations between neuroscientists and discipline-based education researchers, and propose directions for future research.
认知神经科学研究通常在控制实验室环境中进行，这些环境与科学、技术、工程和数学教室几乎没有相似之处。幸运的是，最近便携式脑电图技术的进步现在允许研究人员在现实教室的学生群体中收集大脑数据。尽管这项研究仍处于起步阶段，但越来越多的证据表明，学生的参与度、记忆保留和社会动态反映在学生和教师之间的大脑同步（即他们大脑反应的相似性）中。在这篇综述中，我将概述这一新兴研究领域，讨论这种方法如何促进神经科学家和基于学科的教育研究人员之间的新合作，并为未来的研究提出方向。
