ENThe article presents four neurocognitive processes (excitation, perception, memorisation and using, transferring and adapting information and/or actions) during learning. Based on these processes, good learning can occur if the teacher chooses appropriate methods. The article presents an analysis of 28 distance lessons. The results show that active methods are most frequently used during the excitement process. In the process of perception, the verbal (questioning) method is used. While using, transferring, and adapting information and/or actions, the teacher applies various verbal methods and self-check tests to enable pupils to revise what they have learned.
