A recent international study involving 72 Oxford University students has demonstrated that non-invasive electrical brain stimulation can improve mathematical performance, particularly in individuals with weaker neural connectivity in specific brain regions. The technique, which uses gentle electrical currents applied to the prefrontal cortex, has been shown to enhance executive function and memory, thereby boosting math skills. This method, referred to as neurostimulation or neurostimulation of the brain, may offer a new approach to addressing learning difficulties in mathematics. The findings were supported by experiments involving electrodes placed on the brain, which improved the performance of students who previously struggled with math. The research highlights the connection between brain function and learning processes and suggests that targeted electrical stimulation could reduce educational disparities by enhancing cognitive abilities related to math. The study has been reported by multiple international media outlets and scientific sources, emphasizing the potential of this technique to transform math education.
