LOBE
(FRONTMOST
REGION)
OCCIPITAL LOBE
The rear of cerebral cortex
Two main parts:
i. Primary visual area
-receive visual input from
retina (shape, colour, size,
motion, dimension)
ii. Visual association area
-interpret information that
acquired
through the
primary visual cortex
iii. Vision *
CONTROL
PARIETAL LOBE
(NEAR THE BACK & TOP OF BRAIN)
MANIPULATION /
INTEGRATION
of objects / different senses
(understand concepts)
TEMPORAL LOBE
The side of head above the
ears
Organizing & combining
what we see, hear, language
& speech production,
memory association &
formation.
Structure of limbic system
located within it

LIMBIC SYSTEM
AMYGDALA
Take up excessive amounts of your brains available
nutrients and oxygen.
HIPPOCAMPUS
Link new sensory input to both knowledge and
experiences (ready process)
-----
DOPAMINE
Most important neurotransmitters
between neutrons
Transmission : -crucial to brains
capacity & process new information
-physical activities
-listening/ reading
THINKING BRAIN
Called as prefrontal cortex.
Increase the nerve
communication networks.
Process new information
(executive function)
Convert short term into
long term

NEUTROPLASTICITY
TEACHERS :
Fix limit based on learning
disabilities
Pubic test scores / achievements
Providing experiences can maximize
its learning & proficiency
TEACHERS:
Should know when the stress cut off flow
from / to PFC (behavior is involuntary)
TEACHERS :
Demonstrate patterns, connections
& relationship
Receive timely feedback & reflect
experiences
RETENTION
(NEW MEMORIES ARE CONNECTED TO
OTHER COMMON STROED MEMORIES)
TEACHERS:
Multisensory instruction, practice, review
Construct concept of memory to new
stimuli/ knowledge
