LU 3 | Learning Reflections

In this unit 3 Neuroscience, it presents the tools of brain recording from my viewpoint of an intelligent user, trying to understand how the brain works. A perfect observer of the mind brain would be able to follow tens of billions of neurons and sample each one a thousand times per second. The perfect observer should then be able to track the constantly shifting interplay between smaller and larger groups of neurons, making trillions of possible connections. By analogy, a perfect spy satellite in space would be able to see every single human being, as well as the changing relationships between individuals and groups, from families to whole nations. Brain imaging has been a breakthrough technology for cognitive neuroscience, building on decades of cognitive psychology, behavioral conditioning, psychophysics and brain science. Before imaging techniques matured,our knowledge came from animal studies and the hapazard injuries incurred by human beings. But brain injuries are extremely imprecise and even to locate the damage, neurologists often had to rely on post mortem examination of the patients' brains as in the case of Broca's and Wernicke's patients discussed in Chapter 1.

From this unit 3 which is about neuroscience, we learn about the structure and the function of the nervous system other than study about the modern technology that has been used by research. This unit, is important for us to know about the processing of information inside our mind by different structure and the techniques that can be used from the brain mapping. We found out that it can be applied in our communication by using the various language with other people, we thought of something such as the answer of the question, how we keep the memory, the perception of our stimuli, the processing of the visual and the vision we receive. Then, we will explore further on this unit to know more about the information that we will experience it. We are able to understand more about the processing of our mind that has their own structure and function that we have been used the process after we finishing this topic.
