Instructions
Please define myelin, and in your definition be sure to include a) what it’s comprised of, b) myelin’s major functions and c) myelin’s importance in brain maturation (if you need to look outside the text on the last part, be sure to use websites that end only with .gov, .org. or .edu, and include any links you used). (1 pt.)
Please use household items to make a 3-D model of a neuron (not a drawing). You can use art supplies, food/candy, tools, plant matter, or anything else you can find. Be creative! Be sure to include the following components in your model: 1) CELL BODY (with NUCLEUS), 2) DENDRITES, 3) AXON (with branching), 4) MYELIN. Label your model, take a picture of it with the labels, and insert the picture in your response using the “Insert” Image function above. You can set a piece of paper next to your model with the label names written on it, and arrows pointing from the label to the correct the part on your neuron model, or if you have another idea for labeling, go for it, as long as it’s clear. Now you have a study tool, unless it’s edible and you need to eat it! (2 pts.)

Go to the TED Talks Website. Then:
In the search bar, type in brain or neuroscience. You can leave it at that, or add other key words that are of interest of you as it relates to the brain. Find a TED Talk about neuroscience that catches your attention, and then do the following:
Name the title of the talk and share the link to it. (.5 pt.)
Name the speaker of the talk, and mention their qualifications/expertise (the info should be there; otherwise look them up and provide the link you use to get the information). (.5 pt.)
Watch the TED Talk, and here, explain briefly what the talk is about (YOUR summary, a paragraph, and not the summary from the website – I WILL compare). (1 pt.)
Do you recommend this talk for others in the class? Why or why not? (.5 pt.)
