a.

Brain - is the epicenter of the central nervous system, which controls

the most critical functions of the body.
b. Cerebrum - The cerebrum, often known as the cortex, is the biggest
region of the brain. It is linked to higher processes like cognitive
ideas and behaviors.
c. The Limbic System - The limbic system, sometimes known as the
"emotional brain," is made up of four glands located inside the
cerebrum.
d. The Brain Stem - Many people consider the brain stem to be the
most significant portion of the entire brain and nervous system. It is
linked to the spine and is in charge of sending messages to all parts
of the body.
e. Whole Brain Theory – is a mental model that expresses one's
preferences. It is based on the idea that the entire brain is engaged
during mental processing and that diverse portions interact during
mental processes such as perception and memory.
f. Mind Map – are important visual tools for connecting thoughts and
information in such a manner that the interconnectedness and
interrelationship of these are clearly put out and easily available to
aid
in problem solving as well as reference and review.

1. Watch the clips on Whole Brain Theory 1 and 2  attached below. 

2.  2. Discussion and processing of the following based on the videos watched andf readings:  
       The Powers of the Mind.
a) What is the Whole Brain Theory?
- is a mental model in which one's preferences are expressed. It is
predicated on the premise that mental processing engages the entire
brain, and that different parts of the brain interact during mental processes
including perception and memory.
b)    Herrmann’s Four Dominant Quadrants
- Analytical, Organized,Interpersonal and Integrating
c.    Whole Brain Theory in Learning
- It is a learning approach in which students learn an idea by using both sides
of their brain, rather than simply the left or right.
d.    Mind Mapping
 - effective way for taking notes and brainstorming essay themes A mind map
is created by writing down a key concept and then brainstorming fresh and
related ideas that radiate out from the centre.
            From the video, what have you learned about the whole brain theory?
-It demonstrates how the oscillatory rhythms of the human and animal brains alter throughout
cognitive processing. The theory is based on the assumption that oscillatory activity is a
representation of brain function.

      What is the theory's implication to personality development and learning? 

    
        3.Take the Brain Dominance Test at
           http://www.edu-nova.com/apps/brain_dominance.html.  
            Retrieve the result in the online brain dominance test for your personal
consumption and for our discussion purposes. You can paste the result in your
notebook or keep a file copy of it, then answer the following questions:
a. How was your experience in answering the brain dominance test?
I'm happy because they determined whether part of my brain is more
analytical and methodical, the left or right brain.
b. What is the result? Are you left brain dominant or right brain dominant? Is the
result what you expected?

My result is 45% left brain and 55% in the right brain. I didn’t expect that my right brain is
higher than my left brain.

c. Having taken the test and seen your results, what have you discovered about
yourself? 

I discovered that I am capable of dealing with spatial information and visual cognition.
