Cross-Study of English Education and Cognitive Science: Language Processing and Learning Mechanisms

Abstract

With the acceleration of globalization and the rapid development of information technology, English, as the main language of international communication, has increasingly prominent importance in education and learning. English education, as a discipline that studies the theory and practice of English education, has been exploring more effective teaching methods and learning strategies. At the same time, cognitive science, as a discipline that studies cognitive processes such as human thinking, learning, and memory, provides a profound theoretical foundation for understanding language processing and learning mechanisms. The cross-study of English education and cognitive science helps to build a more complete theoretical framework for language processing and learning mechanisms. By integrating the theoretical achievements of the two disciplines, we can more fully understand the cognitive processes and laws of English learning, revealing the intrinsic connection and essential characteristics of language processing and learning mechanisms. This can not only enrich and develop the theoretical systems of English education and cognitive science but also provide new ideas and perspectives for research in other related fields. In addition, with the continuous development of artificial intelligence and big data technology, research on language processing and learning mechanisms can also provide technical support and innovative ideas for fields such as natural language processing and intelligent education. Therefore, the cross-study of English education and cognitive science not only has far-reaching academic value but also has broad application prospects and social significance.
