I agree with what a lot of people have already said about learning how our brains work will help us. Another thought I had was how the brain has evolved over time. This came up in another class I'm taking and I wonder how people 'thought' even before people developed the ability to produce speech? Was it in images? How did the acquisition of language change our brain? Or did the brain change before we acquired language? This would also tie in to education and learning. Do we need words/language to think, have ideas, learn?
