Neuroscience, the Brains

I really enjoyed the conversation with Wendy and the brain and  how it functions. The brain story is a revelant part of everything we do.  I think as a society, we need to be aware of how we think and change the way that we perceive how others think.  Wendy brought out  important points in her conversation with us.  How does the brain produce consciousness?  Is your consciousness the same as mine?  How does this affect my outlook on life?   How does the overall picture what we perceive change?  I think as a teacher and as a human being in a society that cuts open, and takes things apart microscopically, that the big picture is that we really don't know. So my story in the journey of life, is to interact with my students iand help them to develop their own consciousness about their world and ease them into mine!  This is my never ending story!   I was also very excited about the hands-on activities and the overwhelming wealth of knowledge of the presenter.  Thanks Wendy!
