Mirror Neurons
Manage episode 431324957 series 3589419
How does recent research on neurons intersect with classical understandings of imitation? Find out in this week's episode of the Education Renaissance podcast. In this podcast, Jason Barney is joined by Patrick Egan and Kolby Atchison to delve into research on mirror neurons. After exciting the imagination of the world almost a decade ago, we question what exactly is going on with the imitation brain. Thankfully, imitation or mimesis has been around a long time, with ancient philosophers such as Aristotle and Plato recognizing how intellectual and moral habits can be acquired through example and practice.
The Educational Renaissance Podcast is a production of Educational Renaissance where we promote a rebirth of ancient wisdom for the modern era. We seek to inspire educators by fusing the best of modern research with the insights of the great philosophers of education. Join us in the great conversation and share with a friend or colleague to keep the renaissance spreading.
