- One trillion neurons are linked by 100 trillion connections which are altered as we learn.
-  Individual differences in the brain are seen in the differences of activity of individualized specialized networks]]> 2019-02-11 04:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/vbazuz1/hyc0bcv7exux/wish/329719794 Primary Classes of Neural Networks Involved in Learning vbazuz1 https://padlet.com/vbazuz1/hyc0bcv7exux/wish/329720449 Affective: networks which monitor the internal and external environment to set priorities, to motivate, and to engage learning and behavior (buried in the center of the brain)

Recognition: sense and perceive information in the environment and transform it into usable knowledge (posterior/back of the brain)

Strategic: used in planning, organizing, and initiating purposeful actions (anterior/front of the brain)]]> 2019-02-11 04:14:19 UTC https://padlet.com/vbazuz1/hyc0bcv7exux/wish/329720449 Three Types of Neurons: vbazuz1 https://padlet.com/vbazuz1/hyc0bcv7exux/wish/329720936 Receptive/Sensory Neurons: bring information to the nervous system

Motor/Effector Neurons: carry information out of the nervous system to stimulate muscle movement

Interneurons: represent the current state or "values" of the organism]]> 2019-02-11 04:17:42 UTC https://padlet.com/vbazuz1/hyc0bcv7exux/wish/329720936
