Neurosciences cognitives et apprentissage universitaire au Maroc : perceptions étudiantes, pratiques enseignantes et conditions d’intégration

Abstract Cognitive neuroscience provides useful reference points for understanding learning conditions, including attentional availability, working-memory demands, knowledge consolidation, and the role of emotion. Translating these findings into higher education nevertheless requires caution: laboratory evidence does not automatically amount to classroom prescription. This study explores how students and instructors from three Moroccan public universities perceive these dimensions and their pedagogical translation. A descriptive mixed-methods design was used. The quantitative component involved 120 students and 30 instructors, while the qualitative component consisted of 12 interviews with stakeholders holding different institutional roles. Descriptive findings show self-reported concentration difficulties among 72% of students, favorable perceptions of visual or interactive materials (M = 4.10; SD = 0.85), and a marked perception that stress affects academic performance (M = 3.80; SD = 1.02). Instructors reported strong interest in professional development related to cognitive neuroscience (M = 4.30; SD = 0.72). A positive association was observed between self-reported concentration and the perceived usefulness of multimodal materials (r = 0.62; p < .01), although no causal inference can be drawn. Interviews highlighted three conditions for responsible integration: evidence-informed professional development, adaptation to institutional realities, and vigilance toward neuromyths. The study supports a gradual, evaluated approach grounded in students’ actual needs.
