==Welcome to Mrs. Bedell's General Psychology Wiki. Neuroscience and psychobiology issues touch all of our lives, whether we realize it or not. As you learn about the brain and the mind-body connection, what are you wondering about?==

Students: Choose a question you want to investigate and learn as much as you can about that topic, until you're satisfied. Then post a summary, or links, video, audio, concept maps, drawings, blogs, etc. to this wiki. Be sure to post in your own class (8:00 or noon), found on the menu to the right->.

When you post, please do these three (ok four) things: 1**) Tell us your name 2) What is your question? 3) What did you learn and how did you learn it?**

You can't do this wrong so have fun with it and enjoy learning from your classmates as well. You are welcome to venture into the other class too.

[] I wanted to know more about how the Internet affects the brain. Click on this article to find mention of several familiar topics: correlation vs. causation, neural plasticity, and Alzheimer's disease. Can using the Internet prevent Alzheimer's disease? What about using the Internet to help children learn to read? Are we become smarter, more global and deeper thinkers as Internet use increases? Or are we skimming along the surface, hyper-clicking and multi-tasking to the point of little comprehension? What you do think? (posted by Karen Bedell)

My question I wanted to know more about memory and the chemicals in our brain that help us keep our memory. I think I suffer from a short term memory or mabe I am just a little lazy when it comes to retianing things to remember like a name, or to pick up somthing from the store. I found in my research that the foods that we eat and the vitamins that we take can help our brains maintain the chemicals in our brain for memory and to always challenge your brain (learn somthing new ) to stretch its plasticity to keep our mind and brain healthy ( Micheal Bartlett )www.naturalnews.com
