[Audio] Many people think of the brain as a mystery. They don't know much about intelligence and how it works. When they do think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb—and stays that way for life. But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle—it changes and gets stronger when you use it. And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn. Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger. A person who can't lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time. That's because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise. And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink and you get weaker. That's why people say "Use it or lose it!" But most people don't know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise. What's In Activity 1. LATERAL THINKING PUZZLES Instruction: Think of solutions to the puzzles by analysing logically the situation. You can do as many guessing as time permits. Try not to look for the answers of the puzzles highlighted below. 1. You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night, when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the bus: a. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die b. An old friend who once saved your life c. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about Knowing that there can only be one passenger in your car, whom would you choose? (Answer: The old lady of course! After helping the old lady into the car, you can give your keys to your friend, and wait with your perfect partner for the bus.) 2. Acting on an anonymous phone call, the police raid a house to arrest a suspected murderer. They don't know what he looks like but they know his name is John and that he is inside the house. The police bust in on a carpenter, a lorry driver, a mechanic and a fireman all playing poker. Without hesitation or communication of any kind, they immediately arrest the fireman. How do they know they've got their man? ( Answer: The fireman is the only man in the room. The rest of the poker players are women.) Lesson 5 Personal Development: The Powers of the Mind.

[Audio] 3. A man lives in the penthouse of an apartment building. Every morning he takes the elevator down to the lobby and leaves the building. Upon his return, however, he can only travel halfway up in the lift and has to walk the rest of the way - unless it's raining. What is the explanation for this? ( Answer: The man is a dwarf. He can't reach the upper elevator buttons, but he can ask people to push them for him. He can also push them with his umbrella). 4. A father and his son are in a car crash. The father is killed and the child is taken to hospital gravely injured. When he gets there, the surgeon says, 'I can't operate on this boy - for he is my son!!!' How can this possibly be? (Answer: The surgeon cannot operate on her own son; she is his mother.) Processing questions: Instruction: Please answer the questions on the space provided. 1. As you were thinking of solutions to the puzzles, what was going on inside you? _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________. 2. What organ was working the moment you think of solutions to the puzzles? _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________. Activity 2. Brain Discoveries! Instruction: Consider two different questions. Let's talk about what you already know by supplying the boxes below. What is the brain and how does it work? What happens inside your brain when you learn something new? What's New.

[Audio] The activity above allows you to think and feel how your brain works! Through this exercise, you will appreciate and discover scientific discoveries about the brain and how these affect learning. BRAINPOWER: COMPLEX ORGAN CONTROLS YOUR EVERY THOUGHT AND MOVE How did you get here? No, no, no! It's not a question about your conception or birth. How did you get here? On this page. Reading this story. The answer is a lot more complex than, "My teacher told me to read it" or "I clicked on it by accident."The answer involves thought, as in "I want to get on the Internet"; movement—pressing the computer's power button and grasping a mouse; memory—like recalling how to use a browser or a search engine; and word recognition such as " Brainpower" and an understanding of its meaning. In short, the answer involves a wrinkled, pinkish-gray, three-pound organ that is primarily composed of fat and water and goes by the name of brain. You got to this article because that jelly-like mass topping off your spinal cord fired electrical signals to your hand telling it how to move. You got to this article because your brain stored information about using a computer and the definition of words that you learned years ago. You got to this article because your brain is working. Keep reading to find out how it functions, if it repairs itself and if the effects of drug use are permanent. The power to act The brain has three major parts -- the cerebrum, the cerebellum and the brain stem. The brain stem connects the spinal cord and the brain. It controls functions that keep people alive such as breathing, heart rate, blood pressure and food digestion. Those activities occur without any thought. You aren't telling yourself, " Inhale. Exhale. Inhale." You're just breathing. Things are different in the cerebellum. That region controls voluntary movement. When you want to lift your fork, wave your hand, brush your hair or wink at a cutie, you form the thought and then an area in the cerebellum translates your will into action. It happens so quickly. Think about how little time passes between your desire to continue reading this sentence and the time it takes your eyes to move to this word or this What is It.

[Audio] one. It seems automatic, but it isn't. Neurons, the basic functional units of the nervous system, are three-part units and are key to brain function. They are comprised of a nerve cell body, axon and dendrite, and they power the rapid-fire process that turns thought into movement. The thought moves as an electrical signal from the nerve cell down the axon to a dendrite, which looks like branches at the end of nerve cells. The signal jumps from the end of the dendrite on one cell across the space, called a synapse, to the dendrite of another cell with the help of chemicals called neurotransmitters. That signal continues jumping from cell to cell until it reaches the muscle you need to wave, wink or walk. The cerebrum is the largest of the three brain sections, accounts for about 85 percent of the brain's weight, and has four lobes. The lobes-frontal, parietal, temporal and occipital -- each have different functions. They get their names from the sections of the skull that are next to them. The parietal lobe helps people understand what they see and feel, while the frontal lobe determines personality and emotions. Vision functions are located in the occipital lobe, and hearing and word recognition abilities are in the temporal lobe. A critical age Because the brain's healthy functioning is essential to living and determines quality of life, doctors emphasize protecting the organ from injury and chemical abuse. There is a consensus among researchers that brain cells regenerate throughout life, said Doug Postels, a pediatric neurosurgeon in New Orleans, but that new growth happens very slowly after a certain age. "The size of the brain doesn't increase much after 3," Postels explains. During the first three years of life, the brain experiences most of its growth and develops most of its potential for learning. That's the time frame in which synaptogenesis, or the creation of pathways for brain cells to communicate, occurs. Doctors generally accept that cut-off point for two reasons, Postels said. First, in situations where doctors removed parts of the brains of patients younger than 3 to correct disorders, the remaining brain sections developed to assume the role of the portions those doctors removed. But when physicians performed the same surgery on older patients, that adaptability function did not occur. Second, "We know from experiments that if you deprive people of intellectual stimulation and put them in a dark room, that it produces permanent changes in the brain," Postels said. "That occurs most dramatically before age 3. After that age, it's impossible to ethically do a study." Previous research produced information about the effects of stimulation deprivation, but modern ethical guidelines prohibit such research on people because of the potentially harmful outcome. Drug damage Because so little recovery occurs to brains damaged after age 3, the effects of drugs and alcohol on the brain might be lasting. Doctors know what inhalants, steroids, marijuana, cocaine and alcohol do to the brain when people use them. "The question scientists can't answer now is if the damage is permanent," said Sue Rusche, co-author of " False Messengers," a book on how addictive drugs change the brain. Inhalants, such as glue, paint, gasoline and aerosols, destroy the outer.

[Audio] lining of nerve cells and make them unable to communicate with one another. In 1993, more than 60 young people died from sniffing inhalants, according to National Families in Action, a drug education center based in Atlanta. Studies have found that marijuana use hinders memory, learning, judgment and reaction times, while steroids cause aggression and violent mood swings. Ecstasy use is rising among young people, Rusche said, and scientists have found that drug destroys neurons that make serotonin, a chemical crucial in controlling sleep, violence, mood swings and sexual urges. While doctors and scientists know about some effects drugs have on the brain, they don't have a full picture, Rusche said. "When people start using a drug, the scientists know nothing about it. These people are volunteering to be guinea pigs," said Rusche, who is co-founder and executive director of National Families in Action. "Once enough people take it, scientists apply for grants and start studying it. People are inventive. They find new drugs or new ways to take old drugs-like crack from cocaine. "There's a lot we won't know about until later," she said. "The classic example is cigarettes. We allowed people to smoke for 100 years before we knew about all the horrible things that nicotine will do.

[Audio] Activity 3. Brain Dominance Instruction: Write "yes" on the line provided if it applies to you and "no" if it doesn't. Which of these apply to you? ___ I am very organized. ___ I remember faces more than names. ___ I think things through before making a decision. ___ If someone's mad at me, I can tell even without the person saying a word. ___ I work best in a quiet space. ___ I daydream a lot. ___ I hate taking risks. ___ I tend to get emotional. ___ I make a to-do -list. __ If you have more " yes" answers from the left column, you are probably left-brain dominant, while if you have more "yes" answers from the right column, you are probably right-brain dominant..

[Audio] Researchers believed that brain dominance determines a person's preferences, problem-solving style, personality characteristics, and even career choices. For example, a right-brain individual will quickly get a feeling for a situation, while a left-brain person will usually ask a lot of questions first. The following chart reflects additional difference between left and right-brain dominance. What's More THE DOMINANT SIDE OF THE BRAIN PERSONAL PREFERENCE LEFT DOMINANCE RIGHT DOMINANCE Classical music Popular music Being on time A good times Careful planning To visualize the outcome To consider alternative To go with the first idea Being thoughtful Being active Monopoly, scrabble, or chess Athletics, art, or music There is nothing good or bad about either preference. Both orientations can be equally successful in accomplishing a single task; however, one may be more appropriate over the other depending on the situation. RESEARCH STUDY "THE BRAIN'S LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES SEEM TO WORK TOGETHER BETTER IN MATHEMATICALLY GIFTED MIDDLE-SCHOOL YOUTH" WASHINGTON- There really may be something different about the brains of math-heads. Mathematically gifted teens did better than average-ability teens and college students on tests that required the two halves of the brain to cooperate, as reported in the April issue of Neuropsychology, published by the American Psychological Association ( APA). In the study, a joint effort of psychologists at the U.S. Army Research Institute for the Behavioral and Social Sciences at Fort Benning, Ga. and the University of Melbourne, Australia, researchers studied 60 right-handed males: 18 mathematically gifted (averaging nearly 14 years in age), 18 of average math ability (averaging just over 13), and 24 college students (averaging about 20). Math giftedness seems to favor boys over girls, appearing an estimated six to 13 times more often. It's not known why but prenatal exposure to testosterone is suspected to be one influence due to its selective benefit to the right half of the brain. The gifted boys were recruited from a Challenges for Youth-Talented program at Iowa State University. Whereas the average Scholastic Aptitude Test ( SAT) math score for college-bound high-school seniors is 500 (out of 800), the mathematically gifted boys' average SAT math score in middle school was 620. The boys viewed letter patterns flashed on the left or right sides of a computer screen, and had to indicate whether two patterns matched or not - a simple way of learning how the brain responds to data put before either the left or right visual field, corresponding to processing in the right or left.

[Audio] brain because the input generally crosses over to the other side. The letter patterns were presented in three conditions - one-sided, to the right hemisphere (left eye); one-sided, to the left hemisphere (right eye); or bilaterally (both eyes). There were two types of tasks -- "local," saying two letters matched or mismatched on the small letters that went into making big letters (for example, a big T whose two strokes were made of smaller T's), and "global," saying two big letters matched or mismatched. For the average teens and college students, the left brain hemisphere was faster for local matches and the right brain hemisphere was faster for global matches. This fit prior research, which has indicated that the left hemisphere is adept at processing visual " parts," in this case the letter details, while the right hemisphere is more adept at analyzing visual " wholes," in this case the global shapes of the big letters. However, the mathematically gifted boys showed no such hemispheric differences. Those who were precocious in math were equally good at processing global and local elements with either hemisphere, suggesting more interactive, cooperative left and right brains. In addition, whereas averageability boys and college students were slower on cooperative trials, which presented letter patterns on both sides of the screen, the math gifted showed the opposite pattern. They were slower on one-sided trials, but when a task "asked" both sides of the brain to work together, they were considerably faster than the other boys The study supports the growing notion that the mathematically gifted are better at relaying and integrating information between the cerebral hemispheres. Says co-author Michael O'Boyle, PhD, "It's not that you have a special math module somewhere in your brain, but rather that the brain's particular functional organization - which allows right hemisphere contributions to be better integrated into the overall cognitive/behavioral equation -- predisposes it towards the use of high-level imagery and spatial skills, which in turn just happen to be very useful when it comes to doing math reasoning." The research supports the broader notion that "the functional (though not necessarily structural) organization of the brain may be an important contributor to individual differences in cognitive abilities, talents and, at the very least, information processing styles," says O'Boyle. He adds, "Various expressions of exceptionality, such as giftedness in math, music or art, may be the byproduct of a brain that has functionally organized itself in a qualitatively different way than the usual left/right hemispheric asymmetry." At the same time, O'Boyle is not sure whether the findings could apply to math education in general. "Our work may perhaps have something to say about the optimal timing of when a particular brain is most 'ready to learn' or acquire a given skill, but I don't think we can 'create' a math genius without the innate talent already there," he says. Finally, given the rising use of testosterone by adult men, O'Boyle cautions that, " Testosterone taken later in life will not help your math, as the window of influence on brain development is pretty much prenatal. It may enhance muscle mass, but it is unlikely to help you solve calculus problems."

[Audio] MIND MAPPING Mind mapping is a powerful thinking tool. It is a graphical technique that mirrors the way the brain works, and was invented by Tony Buzan. Mind mapping helps to make thinking visible. Most people make notes using lined paper and blue or black ink. Making notes more attractive to the brain by adding color and rhythm can aid the learning process, and can help to make learning fun. The subject being studied is crystallized in a central image and the main theme radiates out from the central image on branches. Each branch holds a key image or a key word. Details are then added to the main branches and radiate further out. Mind maps have a wide variety of uses, for example, note taking, revision planning, planning for writing and problem solving can all be successfully carried out using the technique. The colors and the graphics used will help children to organize their ideas and thoughts. They can be very simple or, quite detailed depending upon the age of the children and the complexity of the subject. Because creating the mind map involves the use of the left and right brain, remembering the information becomes easier! Below is an example of a simple mind map linked to the information above: Processing Questions: 1.

[Audio] Activity 5. Mind Mapping Instruction: Choose a subject or activity that you do well (for example, math, basketball, playing the guitar, painting, cooking, or computer games). Make a mind map of the chosen topic, following the procedure described earlier. Explain your mind map and how you worked on it. Write it on a separate sheet of paper/ bond paper. Mind mapping can be used in all curriculum areas and can help children to think about their learning. How to draw a mind map: 1. Turn the page on its side ( landscape). Use plain paper. 2. Draw the central image using different colors. The central image should encapsulate the subject of the map. 3. Add the branches representing the subject's main topics or themes using key words or images. 4. Add detail with more key words and images. Use color. 5. Print the words clearly. 6. Use arrows to connect linked ideas. Source: Dodd ( 2004).

[Audio] c. think things through before making a decision. d. hate taking risks THE MYTH OF MICHAEL JORDAN Michael Jordan is one of the best basketball players of all time. His average point per game is the highest in NBA history – 31.5. He is one of two players to score more than 3000 points in a single season. And he has 11 MVP awards – five for the regular season and six for the finals. It was dazzling to watch Jordan play. People often spoke of his grace on the court. They talked about his natural abilities. But the true story is different. When he was a sophomore in high school, Michael Jordan didn't even make the team. "It was embarrassing not making the team," he says. "They posted the roster [ list of players] and it was there for a long, long time without my name on it. I remember being really mad, too, because there was a guy who made it that wasn't as good as me." Someone else might have sulked, or quit. But this setback only fueled Jordan's desire to improve. "Whenever I was working out and got tired and figured I ought to stop, I'd close my eyes and see that list in the locker room without my name on it," Jordan says, "and that usually got me going again." The physical education teacher at Jordan's high school, Ruby Sutton, describes Jordan's commitment to the game in those days. "I would normally get to school between 7 and 7: 30. Michael would be at school before I would. Every time I'd come in and open these doors, I'd hear the basketball. Fall, wintertime, summertime. Most mornings I had to run Michael out of the gym." Adapted from "Michael Jordan transcends hoops" by Larry Schwartz.ESPN.com, 2007. PROCESSING: Write your answers in your journal notebook: 1.
