During the 10 hours of classes, you will explore topics such as the learning process and brain development, with special attention to the child's brain and the factors that influence its growth. The course also covers neurolinguistics and dynamic systems theory, fundamental elements for understanding how the brain adapts and evolves over time.

Additionally, you’ll learn about neuroplasticity, a key concept that explains how the brain reorganizes itself in response to new experiences. And of course, the classic “nature vs. nurture” debate will also be addressed, helping to clarify how genetic and environmental factors shape the human brain.
