Dear Heidi That is always what I am doing.
Biology and attentionThe first unit you teach will take the longest because you have to introduce the assessments - and, as you note, we need to integrate biology. I think that my second unit, human relationships, will go significantly faster. I am not worried....
Cognitive processesDear John, I have one student answer this ERQ: “Discuss the use of one or more research methods in the study of brain & behaviour”. However, her answers focused on the techniques used to study the brain (MRI and fMRI). She crafted...
Methodology: Biological approachMe too, I don't love it! That's what I thought, i shall re-read some answers. Thank you so much, appreciate the help Abbie
Exemplar: Classification systemsHi John, I worried about the same thing here. At first, my students felt it is a relief to not having to provide details of the study. However, taking the procedures and results out, the conclusion from what was studied seems difficult to link...
P1C Change: Critical PeriodsHi John, I love these resources, very useful. I find that I have to streamline though - I saw the paper 1a question bank - is it safe to say that students only need to know one cognitive model? I was thinking on focusing on...
Attention: Cognitive modelsHi John, Given that the results of the study showed an increase in grey matter in the mid temporal area of both hemispheres, would it be possible to use this study for a response on localisation of function? Thank you!
Draganski (2004)To teach the Biological factors in cognitive processes area of study can we fit these Biological topics into the mix: 1. Localization of function/Brain imaging techniques (Case of Hm) 2. Chemical Messengers (Martinez...
Biology and attentionJohn, Based on the memory unit, it looks like it would make sense to do chunks of the biological unit (localization of function, neurotransmission, brain imaging techniques first). I wanted to finish learning and cognition this semester, but...

Site authorDear Matt It is not the best example as many students have difficulty explaining the exact role of this area of the brain. But it is possible.
