	Summary:
	The paper summarized the beginning of mind (brain) research with learning theories. On the end of 19th. century in Viena was started „Jugendstil“ school with representatives like Schiele, Klimt and Kokoschka (painters), Schnitzler (writer) and Freud as founder of Psycho-analysis. Maria Montesori had developed a method of educating young children that stresses development of a child's own initiative and natural abilities, especially through practical play. In 20th century were coming new theories: memetics is a theory of mental content based on an analogy with Darwinian evolution, originating from the popularization of Richard Dawkins. The „Flow“ theory is the Psychology of Optimal Experience. Prof. Csíkszentmihályi outlines his theory that people are happiest when they are in a state of flow— a state of concentration or complete absorption with the activity at hand and the situation. In time period between 1870-2013 had presented the results and experience of Baumeister-Építőmester education, where are used all new learning methods.
