According to a pedagogy based on scientific evidence, education, as a teaching-learning process, constitutes at the same time a complex historically evolved biopsycho-social process; in which its determination is in the first instance biological and, ultimately, socio-historical, with psychological mediation between both instances. In fact, in the central nervous system, in general, and the brain in particular, is where all modalities of learning and education occur; determining the characteristics and dimensions of what can be learned, how quickly, limits and duration. Therefore, the brain constitutes the biological basis of education; naturally and directly in the innate and instinctive learning contained in genetic information and, indirectly, by developing biological mechanisms in the brain for learning and carrying out social and cultural functions such as reading and writing. Thus, through brain plasticity (its ability to continuously adapt to changing circumstances), education not only changes the mind, but in turn each new learning produces changes in the brain.
