Explain en-us 2017-11-20 17:18:38 UTC 2026-01-02 01:23:24 UTC hello@padlet.com rosemary_callan https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208809684 2017-11-20 17:21:16 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208809684 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811075 1. I liked it, the virtual reality was pretty cool, but it kind of made my eyes hurt a little after a long time staring through the goggles. 
2. This relates to the theme because it shows how each of the parts is connected and woks together. The different parts of the brain work to send information to each other, while also being specialized in their own ways, each having their own function to control. 
3. It was cool, but not amazingly helpful. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:27 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811075 jmc181 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811112 Overall, I thought this activity was very cool. I did feel a little bit nauseous and ended up just using the phone without the glasses. This connects to the unit theme of how the brain is both specialized and integrated because it visualized all of the parts of the brain and allowed us to see the complexity of the brain in 3D form.]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:31 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811112 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811121 1. For me the virtual reality experience was helpful because it allowed me to see the brain and its specific parts more in depth and up close.
3. This assisted me in visualizing neurons and how they fire and send messages to each other and different parts of the brain.]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:33 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811121 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811122 1) The activity was interesting. Overall, it was nice to be able to see the parts of the brain we studied in a 3D form as opposed to a diagram on paper. 
3) The activity helpful in visualizing the synapses and the electric signals that were sent between neurons. Although the camera was pretty zoomed in, seeing the small dots travel from the terminal branches to the dendrites.]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:34 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811122 cpc182 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811131 1. I enjoyed this expierence. I think it was a good mix of fun and educational. 
2. This connected to the the unit theme because it showed how each system works on its own and how each is specialized to do one thing but also how each system is connected in both structure and function.
3. Yes, because it provided a hands on experience so I'll absorb the information better. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811131 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811143 1. This was a fun experience! Loved doing something new in class. 
2. This really helped to visualize the brain, we were able to see lots of different perspectives and angles.
3. Yes this definitely helped to visual the overall aspect, and different parts of the brain. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:36 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811143 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811150 1. I really enjoyed the VR experience! It was fun to explore the brain in a 3D environment. 
2. It showed the whole brain, all together and integrated, as well as close ups which showed the specialized parts of the brain as well. 
3. This helps me a little with visualized the brain, as it was easier to see what the different parts look like close up. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:36 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811150 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811152 This was a cool experience look at the brain in 3D for the first time. The VR showed how the brain is all connected through the neuronal networks (especially through the nueron picture) and how different parts of the brain can potentially affect one another. Seeing the entire brain in 3D shows a perspective is a good way too see what we are learning in a different context ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:37 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811152 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811175 1). I thought this experience was very good for visualizing the brain. It was great that you were able to guide us through each brain component.  Also it was a very easy thing to do once set up.

3). Yes it did help me visualize an aspect of neurology. It helped me visualize the connected neurons in the brain.  It also helped to see the firing synapses.]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:39 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811175 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811208 1. This was a lot of fun, it was really cool to be able to learn more interactively. Definitely was very helpful. 
2. It connected to the unit theme because it really allowed the viewers to zoom into specific parts but then also the brain as a whole.
3. Yes it did because it helped see and understand neurons much better and the sizes in comparison to other parts of the brain.]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:43 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811208 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811230 1. The experience was a good way to visualize the brain and all the anatomy involved. 
2. The visual tour showed how different parts of the brain could be isolated, yet they all contributed to a larger system/function. This helped me see the different angles of the various lobes in the brain as well as how the different parts were configured together]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:46 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811230 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811240 Very fun and trippy, it was cool seeing everything in three dimensions


2 We could see in this the entire structure of the brain and then see how the individual parts make it up. The limbic system zoom in was really cool and helped me understand how it fit into the brain as a whole. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:47 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811240 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811258 I thought this activity was fun and interesting. I like how it showed all the different parts of the brain in a 3D/interactive way, but I'm not sure how educational it was beyond that. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:49 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811258 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811273 1. This was a good way in seeing the brain from a perspective different than just drawing it on paper, but it took me a little to follow what part we were looking at.
3. Yes- this helped me visualize how the brain looks different depending on whether the view is from inside or outside and the specific system you're looking at.

]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:52 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811273 cfg181 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811296 1) I really enjoyed this activity because it gave me a way to visualize everything we have been learning about the brain. It helps add a good balance of visual and textual learning within the class. 
2) the visualization showed how each part of the brain is connected, but then there are smaller parts of a whole that can be looked at more closley.
3) This helped me visualize the limbic system because it was able to zoom into a 3D module. The neuron forest that it showed was also very useful as a visualization because it allowed me to see the connections between neurons and how many there actually are. ]]> 2017-11-20 17:24:54 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811296 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811400 I really enjoyed the virtual reality experience, but it made me a bit dizzy. This connected to the unit well because we were able to zoom in and look at the different systems, but also look at the parts individually. This helped me visualize the different systems of the brain, but it was a little hard to follow along at points.   ]]> 2017-11-20 17:25:07 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811400 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811600 1. I thought the virtual reality activity was really fun and innovative. It was really helpful to look at the parts of the brain from the inside.

3. The program definitely helped me visualize neurology. Specifically, the limbic system and the forest of neurons was much easier to understand with the virtual reality. 

]]> 2017-11-20 17:25:32 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811600 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811676 I enjoyed the experience because it was really cool seeing the brain up close. This helped me understand how large and complex the human brain is.]]> 2017-11-20 17:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811676 es181 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811728 I really enjoyed this whole experience.  It was definitely a fun and interesting new way to learn more about something as complex as the human brain. This connects to the theme of the human brain being specialized and integrated because in virtual reality we were able to break up the brain into smaller sections that we could look at in more detail. This absolutely helped me with visualizing the brain. However, the whole part with the neuron forest threw me off. Maybe it would be better to start off with the Cerebral Cortex, and then move into the Limbic System, and then the Neuron Forest.]]> 2017-11-20 17:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208811728 https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208812141 1. It was pretty fun, made me feel kinda cross-eyed but was still cool.

3. This didn't really help me visualize any aspect of neurology because the diagrams were too close to my face and it was sometimes hard to see what was actually been referred to]]> 2017-11-20 17:26:31 UTC https://padlet.com/needham/izbuejgpx32j/wish/208812141
