Seven secrets for a better brain

Before class watch the video above and write a five minute presentation about the video. Then think of five questions to ask me about the content of the video. After that think about the questions below. Do you single task or multitask and why do you do it? Do you believe it is important to inhibit information? How often are you distracted by technology? What are your opinions about big idea thinking? Do you calibrate your brain? How often and how do you innovate? How do you motivate yourself to do tasks you do not want to do?

Before class: watch the video, think of five questions to ask me about the video and prepare a short talk about the video. Also think about the questions below. How important is music in your life? Do you think music is therapeutic? Why or why not? Should music be a compulsory subject at school? Why or why not? Does music have a place in hospitals? Why or why not? Medicine is a science and music is an art. Are they separate things or complimentary to each other?
