The methodology actively engages students through hands-on projects and interdisciplinary approaches, fostering a lively classroom atmosphere characterized by curiosity and creativity. The research highlights the positive effects of PBL on student retention and perceptions of learning, supported by findings indicating increased teacher efficacy and student neuroscience literacy. Collaborations with neuroscience professionals enhance real-world relevance, enriching educational experiences. Ultimately, this approach transforms traditional teaching methods and empowers students to become informed and critical thinkers, ready to tackle real-world challenges.</jats:p>}, number={5}, journal={International Journal of Teaching, Learning and Education}, publisher={AI Publications}, author={Shirinzade, Ulya and Li, Miuccia}, year={2025}, pages={18–21} }
