Casual Audio Papers is partly for personal use, so I can relisten to them while I work, and gain more knowledge through osmosis, but it is also for anybody else who is interested in Psychology and Neuroscience who doesn't have a lot of time. I noticed while I work I often want to listen to something educational, but I mostly have to listen to audiobooks or lectures, but never get any hard papers. And there is a big difference. So here it is.

Xeilias Canani is studying Psychology towards a Masters, and will hopefully gain a Psy.D in Clinical Psychology to start a practice.

Key Takeaways: Mind-Brain-Education / Neuroeducation is a transdisciplinary field that combines Cognitive Neuroscience and the Educational sciences in order to produce better learning outcomes in students.
It is important to create a more ubiquitous bridge between the researchers and the practitioners (the scientists and the teachers) in order to produce these better outcomes.
There are no 'quick fixes' by researchers. This is partly because of the general limitations by the scientific methodologies. Although, the research is very helpful in what they do help us to understand, so long as they are understood within their proper domain, examples of which are given within the realms of literacy, numeracy, and fluid intelligence research.
