o 1 million, million brain cells o 50,000 connections can be made from each neuron (links=learning) o PLASTICITY: experience & environment sculpts the brain - infancy & adolescence (myelination) (cf rats) o 2 sides that work in harmony o 3 functional areas in 1 organ o 4 lobes with a variety of functions o Conscious and unconscious brain

FRONTAL - executive; solving PARIETAL - kinaesthetic TEMPORAL - auditory OCCIPITAL - sight

The Frontal Lobe is stimulated by the emotional environment through Mirror Neurons. significant A young persons brain will copy the brainwave pattern of a close, significant adult SIGNIFICANCE FOR EI WITH TEENS: - Good, strong, positive relationships necessary - Adults should be calm for children to be calm - Care should be taken for peer mentors (18+)

Brainscience not platitude.

I FEEL LIKE C--P I CANT LEARN

WHEN YOU FEEL GOOD YOU LEARN GOOD

KEY MESSAGE WITH TEENS: -How we react to antisocial behaviour can increase shame and force a brain downshift, thus potentially making the behaviour worse. -Our emotions are echoed in the pupils brain (+/-) -EL of adults is equally important to that of children the neural connections of the pupils.

Every time we speak to another person we are either raising or lowering their self esteem.
