Thanks Jim!

If you click on the heading, "TIPS: Recently Recommended Websites" you can flip 
through 6 pages of TIPS links.  I include everything psych-related and many 
things education-related. From there, you can access all sorts of links by 
'tag,' for the interested.

One begins to wonder whether this is the sort news story that lends
credence to the myth that we only use 10%, 15% or whatever smaller
fraction of our brain.

2008-05-21 Thread Joan Warmbold
Let me chime in with another perspective and that is, is it possible that
we only develop our brain to 10% (or so) of it's potential.  That is,
infants' brains have billions of dendrites ready to establish connections
but, with disuse, the dendrites are pruned away.  Considering that most of
us weren't given the ideal level of stimulation/challenges in our early
years, then maybe much of our potential brain fell to the wayside, much as
the occipital lobe does in a person who is blind.

RE: [tips] TIPS Map

2008-05-21 Thread Shearon, Tim

Joan- I do see what you are trying to say. But I don't think that accurately 
reflects the complexity of the issues as many of the "lost" neurons aren't 
really "lost" but properly removed from service, as it were.  (through numerous 
and normal attrition processes- including that they are "mis-directed" or 
non-functional, redundant, damaged, etc.). I would personally hesitate to make 
such a statement as it mis-represents the complexity of the issues and plays 
into myth. (It's a mythake?) :) I think those who believe the 10% crap will 
only hear the 10% and that the statement comes from reputable sources. I think 
that would be a mistake for us to assert.
Respectfully,
Tim
