Nilo Serpa

Resumo


Abstract: This article addresses the intersection between cognitive neuroscience, mental health, and modern education, with some observations aimed at distance learning. The analysis presented highlights the negative impacts of technological excesses in education and their consequences for mental health, especially in a neoliberal context, where the lack of critical reflection and scientific training among education staff results in significant damage to the quality of education and, concomitantly, to the quality of life in general, jeopardizing the survival of millions. The work emphasizes the need to adapt educational practices to the local cultural context, mentioning Brazil, and warns of the risks of a superficial and consumerist approach to technological innovations.

Key words: Cognitive neuroscience, consciousness, mental health, education, technology.

Resumo: O presente artigo aborda a interseção entre neurociência cognitiva, saúde mental e educação moderna, com algumas observações dirigidas ao ensino a distância. A análise apresentada destaca os impactos negativos dos excessos tecnológicos na educação e suas consequências para a saúde mental, especialmente em um contexto neoliberal, onde a falta de reflexão crítica e de formação científica nos quadros da educação resultam em danos significativos para a qualidade do ensino e, concomitantemente, para a qualidade de vida de modo geral, precarizando a sobrevivência de milhões. O trabalho enfatiza a necessidade de adaptar práticas educacionais ao contexto cultural local, mencionando o Brasil, e alerta para os riscos de uma abordagem superficial e consumista em relação às inovações tecnológicas.

Palavras-chave: Neurociência cognitiva, consciência, saúde mental, educação, tecnologia.
