Table of content I. The Brain: A huge computer II. The left part of the brain III. The right part of the brain IV. Regions of the brain 1.Frontal Lobe 2.Broca’s Area 3.Temporal Lobe 4.Wernicke’s Area 5.Cerebellum 6.Occipital Lobe 7.Parietal Lobe 8.Somatosensory Cortex 9.Motor Cortex
The Brain continued… Although it is much more complex then a computer the brain is sometimes compared to it because it develops and structures endless information from different channels just like a computer does.The brain is amazing! So kiss your brain! Kiss your brain
The left side of the brain controls…. • Musical ability Artistic ability • Spatial ability • Controls your left arm Emotions
The right side of your brain controls…. • MathematicsLanguages • Science • controls your right arm
Frontal Lobe functions Planning, I plan on going to the mall this weekend Reasoning, to choose between good and bad actions (or better and best), Emotional expression, crying, laughing
Broca’sArea • Speech production
3.Temporal Lobe • Auditory processes of hearing • Learning Memory • Emotion
4.Wernicke’s Area Language understanding
Cerebellum • Movement • Motor skills
6.Occipital Lobe Visual processing
7.Parietal Lobe • Perception = insight- • awareness- • view- • opinion • Spatial processing
8.Somatosensory Cortex • Body • Sensations • Touch • Temperature
9.Motor Cortex • Control of movement
Post test: What is the brain sometimes compared to? • A car • A plane • A computer
Which region of the brain controls visual processing? • Frontal • Occipital Lobe • Parietal
The right side of the brain controls all except • Mathematics • Music • Language • Science
