Neuroscience
This resource explores the interactions between key neural structures in the brain, specifically the amygdala, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus, and their roles in learning and memory consolidation. It aims to provide students with an understanding of how these structures communicate during the learning process, emphasizing emotional processing, executive functions, and memory formation. Through activities such as creating visual charts, writing prompts, and peer discussions, students analyze the contributions of each brain structure and the importance of their collaborative functions in learning. The document also includes sections for individual notes and connections, guided prompts, and reflections on collaborative discussions.
