I posted this title regarding the SYNAPSE since I believe that a great deal of learning transpires here.
The first thing I do is:
l. Determine why the brain needs synapses.
2. Ask myself why the synapse is so important.
3. Determine if it is really true that we could not live without synapse(s).
4. Determine the biological underpinning of the workings of a synapse in relation to learning.
5. Try to reflect on a picture of a synapse in my mind after seeing an image or photo or graphic.
6. Then let your creative self ask every possible question about the synapse that is created by the first five statements.
First this is not a short one hour process. The studying of a synapse never ceases since it is always important.
Let me start out by having us review the following url...and that should get us going.
Partial retrieval of an article from the internet on 7-26-05 called Embryological Development of the Human Brain by Arnold Scheibel, MD- Development of Synaptic Connections Among Neurons.
Scroll down the URL to the "Development of Synaptic Connections Among Neurons"...
