A concern of nursing students in this particular case at the University of Córdoba and also of the teachers who teach there, is academic performance. In the following paragraphs we will try to explain the advances in neurosciences, the basis for developing pedagogical strategies, which will be implemented with the aim of improving academic performance. After reviewing the literature in Scopus and Google Scholar databases, significant articles were selected for analysis. It was observed that most of them propose various methodologies to be implemented in didactics, as well as the few publications dedicated to the subject. In the local case, no publication is evident, making it necessary to investigate and carry out the development of instruments to evaluate the state of emotional neuroeducation and propose didactic approaches that can thus improve academic performance.
