Before Watching
-
The brain is one of the most complicated organs of the body,
subject to much study and misunderstanding. Draw a simple
outline of a brain on the board and have students tell you what
they know about its structure and function. Summarize students'
contributions and build a
"mind map" of
what they know. Try to link related ideas to each other. Prompt
students by asking:
Is the brain divided into sections? and
What does the brain do? Write down all responses,
including misconceptions; you will revisit this mind map later.
After Watching
-
Have students research more information about the brain and
revise the mind map based on their research. Remove
misconceptions and add information as necessary.
