the neuroimaging aspects of second language learning in educational environment: a systematic review of literature

Neuroimaging has a substantial pedagogical advantage when applied to language learners who are experiencing cognitive procedures during educational settings. among such learners are l2 learners who may encounter new experiences that neuroimaging may be able to clarify. the purpose of this study is to investigate whether neuroimaging tools are capable of revealing more information about the experience of l2 learners. a systematic review of the literature on the use of neuroimaging in the context of l2 learning is presented in the study. according to a comprehensive search of numerous known databases, 19 articles met the criteria for extensive analysis. the results of the analysis indicate that neuroimaging tools can be used to reveal brain function during l2 learning. furthermore, it may enable us to uncover brain function during the learning of l2 skills and its neural responses to them. researchers have also mentioned the challenges in the implementation of neuroimaging tools in l2 procedures. in addition to presenting the testimonies found in the literature, it is emphasized that neuroimaging in l2 learning remains relatively unknown.
