  4. PET SCAN Reflects the level of chemical activity in your body. Areas of greater intensity, called hot spots, indicate where large amounts of the radiotracer have accumulated and where there is a high level of chemical activity. Less intense areas, or cold spots, indicate a smaller concentration of radiotracer and less chemical activity. http://www.radiologyinfo.org/en/info.cfm?pg=PET&bhcp=1 fMRI gives us the ability to observe structures that participate in specific functions and provides high resolution, noninvasive reports of neural activity detected by a blood oxygen level dependent signal (Ogawa, et al, 1990 a and b, 1992, 1993; Belliveau, et al, 1990, 1991)

  7. JEAN PIAGET Figure 1.The Inspiration web above illustrates Piaget's four cognitive development stages; sensorimotor (birth-2 years), preoperational (2 - 7 years), concrete operational (7 - 11 years), and formal operational (adolescence - adulthood). By Tiffany Davis, Meghann Hummel, and Kay Sauers (2006)

  8. How The Brain Matures Alexander Luria identified that the brain was not made up of isolated individual parts dedicated to a single function, such as speaking or doing math. He discovered that the brain actually was comprised as a set of neurological systems or loops, each contributing to the brain's ability to process information and draw conclusions. In other words, the ability to do math required many parts of the brain instead of only one part. It was discovered that each part of the brain underwent what appeared to be an expansion and contraction process, based upon the biological and developmental age of the person. This natural developmental cycle occurs approximately every four years until the day we die. Alexander Luria http://www.crossroadsinstitute.org/kchal2.html

  18. THE STUDY OF MUSIC • INCREASES I.Q. • CHANGES THE PHYSICAL MAKE-UP OF THE BRAIN • HELPS RESIST DEGENERATIVE BRAIN DISEASES LIKE ALZHEIMERS • IMPROVES ABILITY IN MATH, ESPECIALLY GEOMETRY • EFFECTS MOOD

  19. LEARNING DEMANDS ATTENTION & MEMORY ATTENTION

  20. THE STUDY OF MUSIC • INCREASES I.Q. • CHANGES THE PHYSICAL MAKE-UP OF THE BRAIN • HELPS RESIST DEGENERATIVE BRAIN DISEASES LIKE ALZHEIMERS • IMPROVES ABILITY IN MATH, ESPECIALLY GEOMETRY • EFFECTS MOOD • ASSISTS WITH IMPULSIVITY CONTROL • IMPROVE MEMORY & RETENTION

  21. TRACING THE PATH OF BLOOD THROUGH THE HEART, LUNGS & BODY

  22. Snell’s Law • Come listen and learn, I’ve a story I tell, • I sing of the genius of Willebrord Snell • A mathematician who lived long ago • In the Netherlands where the Rhine river does flow. • He set for his mind occupations of worth, • Improved navigation and measured the Earth! • He gave us the sine law, that wonderful guy, • And he made more precise calculation of pi! • (Chorus) • Singin’ n1 sine theta-sub-1, hey, hey, hey, • Equals n2 sine theta-sub-2, hip hooray! • n1Sinθ 1= n2Sinθ2 • His greatest feat came in Sixteen Twenty-one, • When optics as science was really begun! • While flashes of lightning illumined his page, • He wrote down Snell’s law, his great gift to the age! • So if you wear glasses or like to fry ants, • Be grateful your lenses were not made by chance! • Astronomers hail him with each new-found star! • Microscopists toast him from each sleazy bar! • (Chorus) • Now some credit Harriot, others Descartes, • Both studied refraction, and both were real smart. • But we prefer Willebrord van Roijen Snell -- • He laid down the law, and he did it darn well! • (Chorus )

  23. 1. Snell lived in • A. Norway • B. Sweden • C. Luxemburg • D. Netherland • E. France

  24. 2. Snell’s Law is also know as • A. Law of Reflection • B. Law of Cosine • C. Law of Optics • D. Law of Magnification • E. Law of Sine

  25. 3. Snell’s Law was simultaneously and independently discovered by • A. Kepler • B. Descartes • C. van Leeuwenhoek • D. Galileo • E. Hubble

  26. 4. Snell’s Law has application in all of the following EXCEPT • A. Microscopy • B. Astronomy • C. Optometry • D. Spear Fishing • E. None is an exception

  27. 5. Given the following, use Snell’s Law and solve for n1.θ1= 30 o Sin θ1 = 0.5 n1 = __?__θ2= 19.3 o Sin θ2 = 0.33 n2 = 1.52 • Calculate and give your answer on the Senteo to 2 decimal places.

  28. Incidental Learning • Learning tangential to the stated objective 40

  30. Chunking • Every Good Boy Does Fine • All Cows Eat Grass • Some Say Marry Money, But My Brother Says Big Business Matters More.

  32. Johann Sebastian Bach

  34. Quodlibet • a humorous composition consisting of two or more independent and harmonically complementary melodies, usually quotations of well-known tunes, played or sung together, usually to different texts, in a polyphonic arrangement.

  35. Music vs. Noise Music = regular vibration per time Noise = irregular vibration per time

  36. Octaves and Frequency • The frequency of a note one octave higher than a given note is twice that of the given note • The frequency of a note one octave lower than a given note is half that of the given note • E.G. • Concert A = 440 Hz [Yellow] piano • A above high C = 880 HZ [Green] • A below middle C = 220 Hz [Red]

  37. Overtones • natural resonance or vibration frequency of a system

  38. WHAT CHILD IS THIS? Words: William C. Dix, The Manger Throne, 1865.Music: Greensleeves, 16th Century English melody • What Child is this who, laid to restOn Mary’s lap is sleeping?Whom angels greet with anthems sweet,While shepherds watch are keeping?This, this is Christ the King,Whom shepherds guard and angels sing;Haste, haste, to bring Him laud,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

  39. Why lies He in such mean estate,Where ox and ass are feeding?Good Christians, fear, for sinners hearThe silent Word is pleading.Nails, spear shall pierce Him through,The cross be borne for me, for you.Hail, hail the Word made flesh,The Babe, the Son of Mary.

  40. Ostinato • is a repeating chord progression which continues throughout the piece. • A short melody or pattern that is constantly repeated, usually in the same part at the same pitch. • Italian for stubborn.

  41. Signed by Ashes - Kevin Keil • Refrain: • Signed by water, signed by ashes, Secure in your love, O God.
