Myths and truth about the human brain

Dear all,

I´m happy to see that most of you enjoyed Dr. Maldonado´s talk so much. The idea now is to write a post about the talk. You may focus on one or several of the myths Dr. Maldonado discussed. How do you think this new knowledge will impact you as a student and future health professional?

Deadline Thursday, November 4.
Wordcount: 250-words.
Write comments to 2 classmates too.

See you next week.

Dear all,

Today's task is to write a summary from an article about your discipline (midwifery or physical therapy). To do so follow these instructions:

1. Visit http://www.guardian.co.uk/

2. Select an article/piece of news connected with your studies or interests

3. Write a summary of it

4. Provide the link to the article

5. Write comments to 2 of your classmates

6. Maximum 300 words

This will be done in the computer lab in class. Deadline Thursday 7 at 16.00!!

Also, for next week you should write a 250-300 post about STRESS. You may refer to what stress is, how it affects people's life, how it affects your life, etc. Deadline, Thursday 14 before class.

Finally, on Tuesday next week we are going to have the talk by Dr. Lorena Binfa, which had originally been planned for September 7.

Cheers,

Claudia
