DESCRIPTION:Prof Daniel Schwartz\, AAA Lab\, Stanford University\nEducatio
 nal neuroscience is an emerging discipline\, but it is not a uniform endea
 vor. There are different ways for it to make progress.   We describe two
  broad approaches\, which we agnostically label Culture A and Culture B. 
   Culture A is currently the more frequent approach.  It relies on indiv
 idual differences to advance the science with a special emphasis on solvin
 g the challenges faced by learners with special needs. Culture B is less c
 ommon.  It examines the effects of contextual variables on typical learne
 rs to make headway at solving theoretical problems in education and improv
 ing general instruction.  Both are valuable and both seek to improve educ
 ation. By describing their differences\, along with concrete examples of t
 heir logic\, findings\, and cultures of work\, we hope to help both neuros
 cientists and educators answer a key question about one another’s work\,
  “Why do they find that worth doing?”
