Abstract:

Since the discovery in the 1990s, mirror neurons have sparked considerable discussion in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, cognitive science, and philosophy. In this book, Embodied Educational Psychology: From Mirror Neurons to Mentalizing Classroom (2024), Chen Wei offers a novel view by merging the theory of embodied cognition with educational psychology through the lens of mirror neurons. The current paper reviews the origins and development of mirror neurons, extending to how embodied cognition can be integrated into education, particularly focusing on its impact on children’s cognitive development and classroom instructional strategies. The article evaluates the book’s theoretical framework, its application in educational settings, its influence on children’s cognitive development, and its approach to mindful classroom design. The article emphasizes the important contribution of embodied cognition to child learning and educational psychology, and points out the challenges and potential future directions for embodied education.
