    Educators are enthusiastic about what cognitive psychology and neuroscience can offer education, however information about learning is often overgeneralized out of context. Some common misunderstandings include believing that learning styles are important determinants of how individuals learn, when in reality tasks may draw on different brain hemispheres without individuals differing in their brains. The relationship between interest in neuroscience and accurate understanding of learning is complex, as those most interested can be more prone to believing incorrect information.
