Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine the impact of neuropedagogical technologies on the effectiveness of the training process of future education managers. The research methodology included the use of the Emotional Intelligence Scale to assess the level of students’ emotional intelligence before and after the introduction of neuropedagogical technologies, methods for assessing cognitive learning strategies, and a questionnaire for evaluating pedagogical effectiveness. The study involved 120 higher education students – future education managers and teachers. They were assessed on their ability to understand and manage their own emotions, as well as evaluated the impact of new pedagogical technologies on their learning process. The research focused on methods such as multimodal learning, action learning, emotional intelligence development, brainstorming with neuropedagogical techniques, as well as reflection and self-regulation techniques. The results of the study have shown that neuropedagogical technologies affect the cognitive development, emotional intelligence and motivation of students of vocational educational institutions. It was found that after their introduction into the educational process, there was a significant increase in the level of students’ emotional intelligence. Teachers who used modern neuropedagogical technologies created favourable conditions for learning, which led to increased motivation, better learning and increased cognitive activity of students. It was noted that methods of reflection and self-regulation significantly improved students’ ability to manage their own learning, reduced stress and increased their interest in learning. It has been found that teachers should use reflection, self-regulation and multimodal learning technologies to improve the learning process and manage students’ emotions. It is also important to take into account individual characteristics and develop social and communication skills through teamwork. These findings emphasised the importance of integrating neuropedagogical techniques into the vocational education system to improve the effectiveness of the learning process
