There are many reasons as to why we chose Wizdome and why it works so well outside with kids of all ages! One of the many reasons why Wizdome works well is that not a single piece of equipment that uses electricity is necessary for us to convey our points and make well thought out, interactive activities for kids and adults alike. Our exhibit is almost entirely interactive and includes quite a few fun facts and things kids can do when they get home. Almost all activities will engage the young and old groups at Science City! The frontal lobe is responsible for decision making, processing (like planning), and speech fluency. In our exhibit, the frontal lobe is represented by stimulating activities including tongue twisters and a “chose your …show more content…
Examples of activities for the parietal lobe exhibit include a “Guess the Mystery Object” sensory activity and Brain Exercise games. The Guess the Mystery Object activity helps explain the “touch” component of the parietal lobe and Brain Exercise Games will have participants try to guess answers to questions posed. The brain stem is also a key component that was not left out in the process of making exhibits for Science City. The brain stem for the most part controls your memories and details traveling from the rest of your body to your brain. For this we included things like a floor puzzle to express how the brain stem sends memories to your brain. Along with the puzzle we have also included a memory game where you open flaps and match the answers with the questions about the brain. The temporal lobe is meant for processing sounds and dealing with almost everything hearing related. We believe this is possibly our most interactive exhibit with multiple activities designed to test and explore one’s hearing potential! Two activities include a hearing test and a pitch hearing test both of which are clearly interactive and enjoyable for both young and old
“The frontal lobe is used with memory for habits”. Baseball players use this part of the brain to help himself perfect their swing and to swing the same way every swing. They work on their mechanics of their swing repeatedly. The frontal lobe helps to build good habit in baseball. “The occipital lobe deals with vision”. Baseball players use the occipital lobe to determine whether a pitch is in the strike zone.The difference between a ball and a strike could be an inch. This is why baseball players need to use their parietal lobe. Baseball players use the parietal lobe to hit a baseball. Finally, the brainstem controls reflexes. Baseball players need the brainstem when a line drive is hit right at them. Reflexes dictate whether your gonna get hit or catch the

Implementation of a computer system to replace paper documentation would require the involvement of an interdisciplinary team. This team would be comprised of several members, each with a specific job. The first member selected would be a Clinical Nurse Informaticist. This team member would be charged with giving valuable input on the software needed for nurses to properly care for and chart on their patients. With the knowledge of nursing practice and informatics, this team member would very valuable in bringing the two together in the most efficient way possible. The next team
The frontal lobe is located at the front of the brain and is associated with reasoning, motor skills, higher level cognition, and expressive language.
The frontal area is the brain’s largest lobe and the most common area of damage in football players. The frontal lobes are where reason and thinking takes place. It is responsible for voluntary movement, attention span, and judgment. The frontal lobe regulates mood and emotion.

The frontal lobe is about reasoning, planning, speech, movement, emotions, and problem solving. The frontal lobe will assess the driver to respond to
The frontal lobe contains two key structures that have a great impact on mood, behavior and judgment. These structures are located in the outer area of the cerebrum towards the front of the skull (Carlson, 2013). This paper will discuss the function and structure of the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex (including the orbitofrontal cortex) and the Dorsolateral Cortex.
The connectionist model describes the different areas of the brain and how they process particular types of information (Brookshire & McNeil, 2015). We have a greater understanding of left hemispheric damage. For example, if an individual has damage to their posterior-inferior third frontal gyrus of the left hemisphere, they will present with Broca’s aphasia, which evidences as motor planning deficits. While scientists and researchers have a general understanding of what the right hemisphere is responsible for, we have yet to understand specific areas precise responsibilities. Generally, we recognize the right hemisphere is responsible for behavior and cognition, perception, recognition and expression, attention, and pragmatic communication (Brookshire &

The cortex consists of four sections, called "lobes". The frontal lobe is connected to reasoning, planning, speech, movement, emotions, and problem solving. The parietal lobe is associated with balance, recognizing, and movement. The occipital lobe is associated with vision. The temporal lobe is connected to hearing, memory, and speech. The cortex is highly wrinkled, making the brain more convenient, as this increases the brain's surface area, giving it more room for neurons. The cerebrum is divided into two hemispheres- the left hemisphere, and the right hemisphere. The right hemisphere is associated with creativity, and the left one is linked with logic. A bundle of nerve fibers, known as the corpus callosum connects these "hemispheres" (Brain Structures and their Functions). The cerebellum, which is also known as the "little brain", is similar to the cerebrum, since it also has two hemispheres and a highly folded surface. This part of the brain is linked with movement and balance. The cerebellum is assumed to be older than the cerebrum "evolutionarily" (Brain Structures and Their Functions). The brain stem controls basic life functions such as blood pressure, breathing, and heartbeat. Scientists say that the brain stem is the simplest part of the brain (Brain Structures and Their Functions).
