Outline of Final Research Achievements	The Enactive Brain Theory & Model was developed to create a new framework for research on "bridging brain science and education" that can consistently elucidate and explain, based on biological and brain science evidence, the lifelong active and proactive "learning and growth" of students who acquire and share language, knowledge, and skills through collaborative acts in a social culture environment. By using the Enactive Brain Theory and Model as a foundation for the learning theory of active learning (AL), the importance of the socio-cultural environment of the classroom, the independent and active "learning and growth" of students, and the importance of the "act of teaching" as a socially cooperative act of the teacher who intervenes in this process were clarified and examined from a new perspective.
Free Research Field	脳認知科学
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	本研究プロジェクトは、生物学的・脳科学的エビデンスに基づき、生涯に渡る「学びと成長」を一貫して論じることができる積極的な脳 Enactive Brain理論＆モデルを構築し、「脳科学と教育の架橋」研究分野を新しく創出した。この研究成果は、AL教育設計の指針として価値があるだけでなく、人間が社会文化の中で言語や知識、スキルを社会的に習得し、主体的・能動的に「学び成長」し、協調的社会的活動をとおして社会文化の構築にかかわる身体的・精神的・社会的に健康（Well-Being）な自立したエキスパート行為者の「学びと成長」、「生涯学習」へも寄与できるなど、大きな社会的意義とインパクトを持つ。
