I am eager to see whether I will be able to use some of the ideas we generate in this class for my HT100 project which is about adolescents and decision-making. I am designing a curriculum to enable adolescents to learn about the neuroscience behind some of their decisions, and to give them a working knowledge of the anatomy of their brain. I am possibly interested in creating an "inside look" of the brain - i.e. if someone was riding a rollercoaster in the brain, what would it look like. Yes, I realize how outrageous this sounds, but I also think it would be very cool if I could make it happen. Even just to explore the PFC and the strategic and affective networks would be something I would really like to do. I figure if any class might allow me to create a "brain rollercoaster", this would be it!

Awesome! It's a great idea (and method) to teach teenagers how the brain works! Do you have any techniques in mind?
