Posting on the brain and learning

http://www.newhorizons.org/neuro/zull.htm

This is a site that I like as it discusses the art of teaching and how it is really up to the students as to determine how they learn.
Also it discusses how science plays a role in this process as well as it splits the brain into four segments of learning: sensory cortex, back integrative cortex, front integrative cortex, and motor cortex. I found this site insightful and educational and I think it could be helpful with further inspection of this subject matter.

This site was interesting as it talked of changes that occurred within the brain during the lifetime of the subject animals. It talked about morphological changes that occured with in the brain and the result.
I found this interesting because if transferred to human brains it can help explain how our brains change over time and thus how our learning processes can morph as well. I also found interesting the section on changes to the cerebral cortex. In it there was a section on how the experiment was conducted and how newness was brought into the equation at a variabnle rate to see how it affected the subjects of the study. This is an important variable, I believe, as if transferred to the classroom this can show how new stimuli can affect a student's learning as well.
