Vilayanur Ramachandran: The neurons that shaped civilization - 1 views

  •  
    One of the living science legends, Ramachandran, who is well known for his studies in neuroscience, talks about the influence of 'mirror neurons' in our lives. This video has some implications for complex social learning and for interconnectedness among people happening as a result of our interacting brains.
  •  
    and so many connections to cultural learning. I am curious to read more about his work, like if there is any research on the developmental stages of humans and the development of mirror neurons over the years.

    http://williamlspencer.com/mirrorneurons.pdf Hocam, this is not exactly what you are looking for but it has some answers that may help you expand your knowledge in this issue.

Neuroscience & classroom - 4 views

  •  
    This is an online course for educators who want to understand how their students learn by helping them connect brain research into classroom practice. This course sheds light on some current issues related to neuroscience. I recommend you have a look at it :)
  •  
    Dear Seda, I like this website too much, thank you :)
  •  
    Its a whole course. Valuable resource for teachers. Similar examples, particularly in Turkey, can bridge the gap between neuroscience findings with the teaching practice.

    This product uses the signals to interpret player facial expressions in real-time. It provides a natural enhancement to interaction by allowing characters to come to life. When a user smiles, their avatar can mimic the expression even before they are aware of their own feelings. You can also examine folowing link: http://www.emotiv.com/insight.php

    merve :) It is amazing video, thank you :)

    This is really impressive. They have used brain signals to control computer. First Computer learns brain signals (pulling a cube in the screen) when person thinks it, then, a person can use that signal to control anything.
  •  
    This is amazing. I cannot imagine all the gaming possibilities. Such a system should change the whole human computer interaction in a gaming platform.

    This video is quite informative and illustrative for explaining brain's plasiticity and connectivity. It also establishes an analogy between Internet and Child's Brain, which worths to watch.

Neuro Myths - 5 views

  •  
    You've surely heard the slogans: "Our educational games will give your brain a workout!" Or how about, "Give your students the cognitive muscles they need to build brain fitness." And then there's the program that "builds, enhances, and restores natural neural pathways to assist natural learning."

    Male and female brains are radically different? Though there may be subtle differences between male and female brains, there is absolutely no significant evidence to suggest that the genders learn or should be taught differently. This myth might stem from a misinterpretation of books such as The Essential Difference: Men, Women, and the Extreme Male Brain, which focused largely on patients with autism.
  •  
    Here is a new reserach about differences of male and female brains. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-25198063#FBM315349 But I think we need more of them to generalize and decide,since the brain is the most complex organ.

    Excellent!!! There are so many myths about education and learning teachers, parents, and children just believe without further inquiry. Take mathfobia for instance. Many girls at very early ages are trained to believe that that cannot do math. Their whole education and career are shaped accordingly. These beliefs and misconceptions are really dangerous, and I have to admit that teachers and professors held many of these myths and educate accordingly.
  •  
    I am really disappointed now :( I have been deceived by those myths :( I was very sure about some people are left-brained and some are right-brained or the ages 0-3 are more important than any other age for learning. It is quite interesting that I still do not want to believe that they are wrong :)
  •  
    Thank you for this source, there are some like Afranur that disappointed me:) I believe that people taking these myths and carrying them all along can be related with a crucial element of our education system: not emphasizing making critiques and reflections. Fortunately critical literacy is gaining importance, I hope its effects will be seen in our education system as well.
  •  
    Now I understand why I felt so incomplete while learning those MYTHS in training sessions :-) As a listener, I always questioned my brain's capacity and thought that only the genius can use their brain's full potential...:-((
  •  
    Fischer's ideas are really interesting. I was most confused about his idea of left-right brained.
  •  
    As far as I see, this link was shared in this group a long time ago, but I've wanted to make it visible again so that you don't miss it. This is the last post coming from me for this week :).

    As you've learned from the article by Goswami, there are some pervasive 'neuromyths' around. This TedEd video explains one of them besides providing some key points about brain. By the way, it is being a very 'brainy' week for me. :)

Genes to Cognition - 1 views

    Hi all, "Genes to Cognition (G2C) Online is about modern neuroscience. It focuses on cognitive disorders, cognitive processes, and research approaches." What makes this website interesting is its dynamic networks that teach a lot about brain and neuroscience. What is more interesting about the website is 3-D Brain at the top right corner of the site. You can explore every single part of brain via that interactive model. Moreover, you can download it as a free application to your mobile phone through Google Play or App Store. Have fun with it! :)

    Yasin, I liked to much this application, it is too enjoyable, thank you :)
