摘要

Abstract

The learning paradigm of embodied cognition asserts that learning is based on the close connection of body

mind and environment. With the emergence of the theory of embodied cognition in recent years

education technology has been deeply influenced and gradually changed traditional education modes and teaching methods. This paper introduces the theory of embodied cognition and its three learning paradigms: kinesthetic learning

embodied learning and embodied interaction

and explores the practical application and future prospects of embodied cognition in education technology. However

the educational theory of embodied cognition lacks a clear teaching framework

and further research is needed to integrate embodied teaching methods into different learning environments and teaching designs. Reconsidering the role of the body in the teaching and learning process has a positive impact on educators and may also promote the development of education technology.
