Science and Biology teaching is characterized by emphasis on genetics, evolution issues and living beings in general, besides to help students understand their role in environment. In order to support the knowledge construction in the classroom, the teacher can use different methods and approaches, such as traditional teaching, active learning and didactic tools like TV, DVD, datashow, conceptual map, and others. However, to choose the best strategy to teach, it is necessary not only to know the students profile but also to understand how these approaches affect the nervous system (NS) in terms of improving learning. Neuroscience is the scientific study of the NS and it plays a major role to understand how the brain works and how to use this knowledge, associated with psychology and education, to improve teaching / learning process. In this context, the present study aimed to perform a literature review in order to understand how the neuroscience can be used in the classroom to improve teaching-learning process. Thus, information about Science and Biology teaching approaches, teaching-learning process, neuroscience and neuroscience applied to education are discussed. The present research can help Science and Biology teachers to upgrade their knowledge about neuroeducation and give them some information that can be used to improve the quality teaching and learning methods.
