Spanish term or phrase: podremos tener grandes consecuencias didácticas
Hello!

I'm currently translating a document for an e-learning course in neurosciences and training. I have included a short paragraph in order to give some context. The text is an integrative reading of all the modules and the previous paragraphs discuss information processing, sequences and specifically states that they do not aim to discuss the topics in terms of teaching and training, but rather in a scientific context. My issue is with the phrase in the thread title, "podremos tener grandes consecuencias didácticas." Actually I am struggling with the last two sentences of the paragraph...can anyone be of help? I would really appreciate it!

La teoría del procesamiento de la información surge como reacción al conductismo y a la psicología gestáltica. Su principal inquietud refiere a la denominada “capacidad de canal”, esto es: cuánta información puede procesar pertinentemente el sistema nervioso cuando ejecutamos un movimiento voluntario inteligente. Dependiendo de este análisis, podremos tener grandes consecuencias didácticas, sobre todo para reflexionar acerca de la cantidad de información que puedo proveer a un sujeto en las diferentes etapas del aprendizaje motor y en el entrenamiento de la técnica, como así también acerca de la cantidad de información que se podrá proveer para adquirir, perfeccionar o estabilizar. Su impacto mayor ha sido, junto con la cibernética, en la teoría y práctica de la corrección de fallos.

may have major didactic implications
Explanation:
This is not what the original says, but it makes more sense: learning how we process information may change the way we chose to provide information/teach.
El texto está muy mal escrito. Por empezar, algo puede "tener consecuencias" --en general se usa con sentido negativo, pero no "alguien".
De todos modos, tampoco creo que sea la palabra adecuada aquí, y no usaría "consequences" en inglés.

tener consecuencias algo

1. loc. verb. Tener o traer resultas un hecho o suceso, o producir necesariamente otros.
