Brain Structures and
their Functions
- The Cerebrum
- The cerebral cortex is divided into
four sections,
- Frontal Lobe
- associated with reasoning, planning,
parts of speech, movement, emotions,
and problem solving
- associated with reasoning, planning,
parts of speech, movement, emotions,
and problem solving
- Parietal Lobe
- associated with movement,
orientation, recognition, perception
of stimuli
- associated with movement,
orientation, recognition, perception
of stimuli
- Occipital Lobe
- associated with visual processing
- associated with visual processing
- Temporal Lobe
- associated with perception and
recognition of auditory stimuli, memory,
and speech
- associated with perception and
recognition of auditory stimuli, memory,
and speech

- what?
- The cerebrum or cortex is the largest part of the
human brain, associated with higher brain function
such as thought and action.

- hypothalamus
- controls emotions. It also regulates your body's temperature and controls crucial urges

- hippocampus
- sends memories to be stored in appropriate sections of the cerebrum and then recalls them when
necessary.

- The Cerebellum
- what?
- similar to the cerebrum in that it has two
hemispheres and has a highly folded surface or
cortex

- associated with regulation
and coordination of
movement, posture, and
balance.

- how brain works?
- Teaching Grows Brain Cells
- guided instruction
- practice with frequent corrective feedback.
- providing the brain with the best
experiences
- guided instruction
- Techniques
- Visual paired
- first presented with pairs of visual stimul
- 5- to 6-month-olds can retain information for as long as fourteen days
- first presented with pairs of visual stimul
- Detection paradigm
- Individuals are shown a number of objects and color samples during a certain period of time
- tested on their visual ability to remember as much as they can
- Individuals are shown a number of objects and color samples during a certain period of time
- Deferred imitation
- shows infants a unique sequence of actions
- shows infants a unique sequence of actions
- Free recall
- list of words and then later they will be asked to recall or write down as
many words that they can remember
- list of words and then later they will be asked to recall or write down as
many words that they can remember
- Recognition
- objects are asked to remember a list of
words or pictures
- asked to identify the previously presented words or
pictures from among a list of alternatives that were
not presented in the original list
- objects are asked to remember a list of
words or pictures
- Visual paired
- Memory
- meaning
- process in which information is
encoded, stored, and retrieved
- process in which information is
encoded, stored, and retrieved
- type
- Sensory memory
- holds sensory information for less than one
second after an item is perceived
- holds sensory information for less than one
second after an item is perceived
- Short-term memory
- recall for a period of several seconds to a
minute without rehearsal
- recall for a period of several seconds to a
minute without rehearsal
- Long-term memory
- store much larger quantities of information for
potentially unlimited duration (sometimes a whole life
span)
