Abstract

Based on the scenarios that have been outlined in the last few years, the human body, motor acts and actions, on the whole, have acquired a leading role in the development of new learning processes. The body has been getting back and enhancing its own educational functions in order to develop superior cognitive functions. Movement, if acted responsibly and consciously, is a very powerful way to improve learning. The motor system does not only support motor functions but becomes a way through which people can relate to the external world, develop their brain and learn how to approach different learning methods. Movement supports the implementation of such learning methods. The “new” role of teachers is to understand the students’ needs and develop their potential using the motor system and its features.
