RESOURCES FOR YOUR BRAIN

HAVE YOU EVER NEEDED A MENTAL LIFT OR FORGETFULNESS NEVER FORGETS YOU...TAKE THE TIME TO REVIEW SOME OF THESE SITES AND ARTICLES THAT MAY HELP YOU IN THE LONGRUN TO IDENTIFY THE PROCESSES OF THE BRAIN. THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND BELOW:


The Brain Goes to School: Strengthening the Education-Neuroscience Connection by Daniel Asari, focuses on the brain processes and the relationship between neural processes and environmental input. This can be found on Walden U library in ERIC database.



Derek Sankey, author of Guest Editorial: The Ethic of Forgetfulness, reflects on the ethical issues regarding the use of memory enhancing drugs. He argues that the drugs like Ampakines might have ill influence on education as students would invariably use them to sharpen their memory. He says that drug would not let people to forget but it has been proved that the ability to forget is critical for the functioning of brain.

Within these two articles, I found them interesting because as humans, some of us still rely on the surroundings in which we derive from to take control of our thinking and for many others we take the risk to enhance the brain with vitamins, all natural remedies, or even prescriptions without even researching the effects that it could possibly have on the brain which could lead to alot of our mental problems or increase in forgetfulness or extent of our memory and how much we can retain.
