Questions We Can Help to Answer
Instructions:

The Biological Bases of Behavior chapter contains a great deal of information that needs to be memorized. For example, you need to remember the divisions of the nervous system, the parts (including their locations and functions) of a neuron, and the main structures (including their locations and main functions) of the brain. 

Mnemonics are memory aids designed to help you remember the material. For this assignment, you should watch a video where brain structure mnemonics are used, develop your own brain mnemonics (that your classmates can relate to and use), and share your mnemonics (and opinions) with the class. 

Watch the Brain Mnemonics video (located in this week's folder) showing how one man developed some humorous mnemonics to help people remember specific brain structures. 
Develop 2 new mnemonics to help others (and yourself) learn the parts of the brain.
Each mnemonic that you develop should be designed to help someone learn the main function of a specific brain structure and/or the location of that structure.
Do not post a mnemonic related to other parts of the nervous system or a neuron itself.
Do not use mnemonics that were used on the video or that someone else developed. You must develop your own.
You are developing mnemonics for others to use; therefore, your memory aids cannot be obscure, like cerebral CORTEX=Cory Ordered Rice To Eat eXcitedly. Instead, the mnemonics should be understandable to all and actually relate to the brain parts you are describing (as explained in the next bullet point).
Your mnemonic actually should relate to the brain structure's location or main function. For example, the video identifies the location of the cerebral cortex by associating the "tex" in the word cortex with a Texan's hat that sits on the top of the head. You should not use a mnemonic that requires you to remember that complex thinking occurs in the cerebral cortex by associating it with your friend, Matt, who is from Texas and is smart. That will mean nothing to your classmates because they do not know Matt. Everyone can understand that tex stands for someone from Texas that wears a tall cowboy hat on top of the head.
Once you have done all of the things listed above, post a detailed explanation of your 2 mnemonics on this forum by 11:59pm on Thu of the first week this forum is open.  Your posting should include 8 items:

the 2 brain structures you chose.
a detailed description of each structure to explain the material to your classmates.
your mnemonic for each structure.
how your mnemonic can help someone remember the location or function of each structure.
