Abstract
Nowadays, more and more educators are turning to neuroscience to be able to discover how children's brains and cognitive development are shaped by their learning experiences. This article discusses the link between neuroeducation and genetics. Several learning disabilities arise from specific genetic characteristics. The contribution of neuroscience is remarkable as it helps to understand the working mechanisms and organization of the brain, from the nerve cell to the integrated nervous system, to bridge the organic bases of behavior with their potential applications. In addition, research in the field of neuroeducation combined with the contribution of information and communication technology (ICT) to the teaching and learning process makes learning more accessible and easier for students.
