“…During the past fifty years, in the scope of pedagogical and psychological sciences, new reflections, research results, and theories have emerged that explain the nature, processes and outcomes of learning in a new way. Here we highlight the following: constructivist learning, which foregrounds the subjectivity of knowledge, and the learner constructs it in interaction with the environment through experience (Matijević, 2017;Pivac, 2004), multiple intelligence theory, which involves different patterns of intelligence (Gardner, 2005, p. 7) and curricular theories based on learning educational standards along with students' competencies (Bašić, 2007), the results of educational neuroscience that have so far produced twelve principles of brain and mind functioning concerning learning, known as the Twelve Principles of Natural Learning/12 Principles for Brain-Based Learning (Cain & Cain, 1991;Matijević, 2017).
