Abstract

The Educational process is analized only in relation of a human being, the Homo sapiens, which permits, as nobody else in the Nature a wide mouldition of its behavior. This specific quality that makes possible the cultural adaptation to the medium, typical of the man, far to be alien to his biologic condition has precisely in it -and specially in the cerebrum plasticity- its foundation. The knowledge of the print left by evolution in the leading organ of our behavior as well as some aspects of cerebral dynamics linted to the learning process, becomes object of attention for the pedagogue as this knowledge contributes to construct "mediums" more effectives to obtain the educative objectives proposed. We call Biology of Education the field of the Biology world interested in the study of the human in order to achieve the best in the educational task.
