Teaching grows
brain cells.
Why?
Because IQ isnt
fixed at birth.
Environmental
factors affect
intelligence and
brain development.
Physical changes in
brain also caused by
sensory input,
emotions, conscious
and unconscious
thoughts.
THE FUTURE?
Located at brain
stem, it receives
info from sensory
nerves.
RAS
This is done by
focusing on the
sensory organ
most important at
the moment.
Successful learning
depends on keeping RAS
open to information you
want to enter to PFC.
Information is sent here the sensory intake areas after passing RAS.
Brain enters survival mode blocking entry of new info into PFC.
Chemical neurotransmitters
like dopamine carry electrical
messages across the gap from
one neuron to another.
